The Pro- of Prefixes!

Pro- is used in so many ways that we even use it as a word 
alone. By now, you are becoming a real pro 
with Latin root words!

Pro- is used in many ways:
-Earlier than, prior to, or before in time. 
-Located in front of or in front.
-Forward, forth, for.
-Taking the place of, substituting for.
-Favoring, supporting.

Closely related is the prefix Proto- which means the first 
of something.

Match the following English derivatives with their literal 
Latin meanings and current definition on this worksheet.
