To understand what a negative prefix is, it is great to first know what an affirmative statement is since it is the opposite of a negative prefix. An affirmative statement a sentence that is positive, regarding the term 'affirmative' that also means positive. It's quite easy to guess what a negative prefix is, prefix relating to adding a word or letter(s) to the beginning of a word to change the meaning of it, while negative.. well, you can guess what that is. Now that we know what a negative prefix is, we can see some examples of it to get a more understanding knowledge of it.

Examples of a negative prefix:
$\tt dis-$
$\tt ir-$
$\tt non-$
$\tt un-$
$\tt anti-$
$\tt de-$
$\tt in$
That is not ALL of the negative prefixes, but it is some of the most popular ones that is almost used daily. Now, we can attach those negative prefixes to some words and see what the outcome is in a sentence.

Example of a negative prefix sentence:
The male looked very $\fbox {unhappy}$ while sitting at his desk.

Example of an affirmative statement:
The male looked very $\fbox {happy}$ while sitting at his desk.

Comparing the negative prefix and an affirmative statement, you can tell that the first one has a negative in it while the affirmative statement contains a positive. We are done with the sentences, but now I can show you some combinations of an affirmative statement and negative prefixes and their differences/similarities.

Examples of a negative:
$\tt inaccurate \\ \tt illegal \\ \tt irregular \\ \ nonfiction \\ \tt uncomfortable \\ \tt disagree$

Examples of an affirmative:
$\tt accurate \\ \tt legal \\ \tt regular \\ \tt fiction \\ \tt comfortable \\ \tt agree$

Negative and affirmatives are very easy to learn once you actually see examples of the two. Just to inform you, there are some negative prefixes that are not actually a negative. The examples of an affirmative and a negative should help you understand quite a bit about a negative prefix.
