Answer 2

A suffix comes at the end of a word, but here are some word that begin with the prefix 'poly-':

Polypropylene, polygon, and polyester.

Words that end with the suffix '-poly' include:

monopoly (complete control over something by one person or entity, or the person or entity with such control).

duopoly (a situation where something is controlled by two people or entities, or the people or entities with such control).

oligopoly (control of a product, service or commodity by a small number of producers or entities, or the people or entities with such control).

technopoly (a society which believes technical progress, or technology, is the primary or only goal of humans).

NOTE: The '-poly' suffix, as in 'monopoly' is from the Greek, 'polein' (sell, or to sell). The term, 'monopoly' is formed from 'monos' (alone, only, single) + 'polein'.

The '-(o)poly' suffix is frequently added to familiar words or names in order to indicate some type of control, as in the UK social-awareness group, Tescopoly (from the Tescochain of stores + -opoly).
