Uso de Prefijos en Adjetivos para Ampliar Significados
According to the Cambridge Dictionary:
“Prefixes are letters which we add to the beginning of a word to make a new word with a different meaning. Prefixes can, for example, create a new word opposite in meaning to the word the prefix is attached to. They can also make a word negative or express relations of time, place or manner”.
You will see different prefixes, their meaning, and examples using adjectives. The goal of this class is for you to be able to use a range of common prefixes, enhancing the meaning of adjectives.

Excellent table. It is an amazing guide
anti-crist dis-troyed hyper-loop
Hyperactive significa "extremadamente activo" y se refiere a alguien que tiene más energía de lo normal, a menudo con dificultad para concentrarse. Hypersonic, por otro lado, se refiere a velocidades que están por encima de cinco veces la velocidad del sonido (Mach 5). Ambos términos incluyen el prefijo "hyper-", que implica un nivel extremo o más allá de lo normal. Estos conceptos pueden aplicarse en contextos de comportamiento y física respectivamente.

Platzi must take action over those text format issues around the whole discussion panel.
The term "overlap" refers to a situation where two or more elements share some common features, functions, or areas. In technology, especially in software and programming, overlap can occur when different systems or applications use similar code, functionalities, or data structures. For instance, two software tools might overlap in their capabilities, allowing users to achieve similar outcomes with both. This concept is essential when analyzing compatibility or integration between various software solutions.

"Increasing the meaning of adjectives"
Good night, thanks...
El adjetivo modifica siempre a un sustantivo y concuerda con dicho sustantivo en género y en número
Muy buenos videos

Todo much
"Too much" is exactly what over- is for. When you say something is "overused," you're not just saying it's used a lot—you're saying it's excessive.
If you were describing a course that demands way more effort than it should, how would you use over- to replace "too much"?
Thank you for this important table!
“very,” “extremely,” “absolutely,” and “truly.”
