Detailed explanation-1: -a prefix occurring in loanwords from Greek (diabetes; dialect) and used, in the formation of compound words, to mean “passing through” (diathermy), “thoroughly, ‘’ “completely” (diagnosis), “going apart” (dialysis), and “opposed in moment” (diamagnetism).
Detailed explanation-2: -The prefix per-, most commonly meaning “through, ‘’ appears in such words as permeate, go “through” and permit, send “through.” Per-, however, can also act as an intensive, highlighting or emphasizing the meaning of root words which it precedes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Prefix for complete is incomplete. The prefix is the term is used before a word to alter the meaning of the word. The suffix is the term that is used once a word to alter the meaning of the word. The prefix of complete is ‘in. ‘ Thus, the word ‘complete’ once applying the proper prefix becomes incomplete.
