To match the prefixes with the base words and create a new list of words with different meanings, we need to understand the meanings of the prefixes and base words.
- "Un-" means not or opposite of.
- "Re-" means again or back.
- "Dis-" means not or opposite of.
- "Over-" means too much or above.
- "Mis-" means wrong or incorrect.
- "Out-" means beyond or outside.
- "De-" means opposite of or remove.
- "Pre-" means before or earlier.
- "Under-" means below or less than.
Now, let's match the prefixes with the base words:
1. "Un" + "powered" = "unpowered" (meaning not powered)
2. "Re" + "steady" = "resteady" (meaning to make steady again)
3. "Dis" + "board" = "disboard" (meaning to remove from a board)
4. "Over" + "assure" = "overassure" (meaning to assure excessively)
5. "Mis" + "hydrated" = "mishydrated" (meaning to incorrectly hydrate)
6. "Out" + "pouring" = "outpouring" (meaning pouring excessively)
7. "De" + "wash" = "dewash" (meaning to remove or not wash)
8. "Pre" + "infect" = "preinfect" (meaning to infect before)
9. "Under" + "judge" = "underjudge" (meaning to judge too leniently or underestimate)
