An affix is an word attachment to a root or stem that gives a word a different meaning.
Prefixes are a type of affix. Prefixes are “pre” (before) “fix”ed (attached) to a root or stem to create a new word with a new meaning.
Prefixes themselves are not words. They must be attached to a root or a stem in order to create new words.
