I think it comes from the french prefix non, which means no and fiction means fake, so if u were to put it together it would make no fake in exact not fake?
No, there is no hyphen between "non" and "fiction" in the word "nonfiction." The term is typically written as one word.
They both have word fiction in them Both are written by authors Both can have plots, characters, themes, symbols etc....

Non- Fiction
the non-fiction.....but should be in the fiction :)
The word 'non' is used to indicate 'not' or 'no'; a negative to the main word, as in 'non-existent', 'non-fiction', 'non-participant', and so on.Because adding the prefix 'non-' has negated the main word, to create a word which opposes the word prefixed by 'non-' - in other words, to create an antonym to the whole 'non-' word - you simply remove the prefix 'non-'. So, for instance, you'd change the examples above into 'existent', 'fiction', or 'participant'.*This is a fantastic question which I've never been asked before, and if anyone can come up with a better answer than mine I would truly appreciate hearing it. I know I'm going to bother people about this until someone, if only to make me stop asking, improves on my somewhat negative attempt.
fiction is Imaginary stories, non-fiction is real stories
