Both ΟΜΟ- (con-), ΟΜΟΙΟ- (homo- / homeo- pronounced: omoio-) and ΗΜΙ- (semi-, demi-) can signify the same thing, though "ΗΜΙ-" (semi-) has the degrading meaning of "half-". Just think what "semisexual" could mean...
A very good example for the right use of ΟΜΟΙΟ- is the word "homeopathetic" (ΟΜΟΙΟΠΑΘΗΤΙΚΟΣ, ΟΜΟΙΟΠΑΘΗΤΙΚΗ)
