Yes, "mis-" is a negative prefix in English. It is often used to indicate a negative or opposite meaning, such as in words like "misunderstand" or "misguided."
mysterious
The suffix in "misunderstand" is "-stand", derived from the base word "stand", which means to have a particular opinion or attitude towards something. When the prefix "mis-" is added, it changes the meaning of the base word to indicate a lack of understanding or comprehension.

You don't see -mis as a suffix. There aren't very many words of any kind that end in -mis. Maybe you are thinking of the prefix mis- as in "mistake", "misapprehend", "misunderstand" where is carries the sense of wrongness or error. E.g. "Some people mistakenly misunderstand the meaning of the word "suffix" and misinterpret it to mean "prefix""
