What does the prefix "uni-" denote?

  1. One

  2. Down, away, thoroughly

  3. Around

  4. Against, opposing

The correct answer is: One

The prefix "uni-" signifies the concept of "one." It's derived from the Latin word "unus," which means "one." This prefix is commonly found in English words that denote singularity or unity, such as "universe" (the totality of all matter and energy, essentially one whole entity) and "unison" (performing or occurring at the same time, producing a singular sound). Understanding this prefix helps in deciphering the meaning of many English words and enhances vocabulary skills.
