The term 'prefix with linguistics' refers to four prefixes commonly used in linguistics: ethno-, neo-, meta-, and socio-. Ethno- is derived from the Greek word ethnos, meaning 'PEOPLE, ' and is used to refer to the study of language in relation to culture. Neo- is derived from the Greek word neos, meaning 'NEW, ' and is used to refer to the study of NEW or recently developed languages. Meta- is derived from the Greek word meta, meaning 'BEYOND, ' and is used to refer to the study of language in relation to other disciplines. Socio- is derived from the Latin word socius, meaning 'COMPANION, ' and is used to refer to the study of language in relation to society. All four of these prefixes are commonly used in linguistics to refer to different aspects of language study.
