Straight Latin; pro; for, in agreement. Con; against, disagreement.
Construct
'Pro' is not an abbreviation of anything. 'Con' is an abbreviation of 'contra'. 'Pro' and 'contra' are Latin for 'for' and 'against'.
Con- Against (This is incorrect... Contra- means against) Con- With or Together (from Latin) The common misconception is that Con (like in Pro or Con) is the same as the word prefix con-. A Con is a negative side to a point, or argument, and a Pro is an affirming side to the same point, or argument. These are two totally different uses of the three letters "con" with totally opposite meanings. The prefix means "With" and the stand-alone word means "Against." Be careful. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the only way I knew how to comment... Sorry... Anyways, This is the only place that doesn't say it means against, but from Latin, clud, or clus, the root word, means to shut out. This wouldn't make sense with the word conclude, which, by this definition, means: to shut out together. Please help?
No, con does not mean not. Con- means together or with.

I believe Zig Ziglar once wrote, "... the difference between a pro and a con is INTENT. The techniques used are the same... but what you plan on doing, on achieving are different." Normally, the words pro and con are used for opposing positions, for and against. However a pro would be a professional, and a con would be a confidence artist (i.e., a person who commits fraud by deceiving others after getting their confidence). In that context the difference between a pro and a con is that the pro delivers the goods, and the con is fraudulent.
There are many pros and cons. one con would be that sometimes computers are not right. and the pro is they make things easier.
The pro's amd the con's are: pro's he's a person,con's i dont know
A pro of a parliamentary democracy is that it is representative of the will of the people. A con is that it can be difficult to get bills passed because of the varied opinions represented.
