One of the aspects less analysed in the comparison of languages is that of prefixation.
In this study we search to establish the main characteristics of prefixation
in the Spanish and Italian languages in order to amplify the semantic field that
covers each of them, principally with reference to their extension. Concretely, we
study the cases of the prefixes re-, in-, des-and super- in Spanish and their different
equivalents in Italian.
From the translation point of view, we will examine the major cases of contrast
in word formation and will propose the most appropriate solutions.
