The prefix 'phil-' (also, 'philo-') means love, attraction, or affinity for something. It comes from the ancient Greek word 'philia', meaning love. There are other derivatives of the word. For instance, there is the suffix '-phile', as in 'Anglophile' (meaning someone who loves things that are related to England). There are other derivatives as well, such as '-philia', and '-philic'.
