Hi,

EN is a prefix found in many verbs like enlarge, enslave, endanger, enrich, ensure, encourage etc...

EN is also a suffix found in many verbs such as frighten, threaten, shorten, worsen, weaken, sadden etc...

The adjective light (antonym of heavy or dark) takes EN (lighten). However, the noun light takes EN as a prefix and suffix (enlighten)

I hope I'm right
