Best Answer

Syllables are units of pronunciation having one vowel sound, with or without surrounding consonants; or, roughly, the number of distinct sounds in a word, which may have one or more syllables. A prefix is a part of a word, when used, as distinct from the root and the suffix, when used, and inevitably is also a syllable.

No, a syllable is a unit of pronunciation, while a prefix is an affix attached to the beginning of a word to modify its meaning. However, a syllable can be part of a prefix.
