I feel like being called *incompetent* is the worst insult you can get at the workplace

My favorite is "inflammable," where the "in" does absolutely nothing to change the meaning of the word.

We want in dependence!

## **In**

The prefix ***“in”***, which means ***“into”, “on”*** or ***“within”***, can also mean ***“not”, “no”*** or ***“opposite of”***, therefore the prefix ***“in”*** before a word can change said word to mean the ***exact opposite***.

Such as:
- Sane and Insane
- Dependent and Independent
- Complete and Incomplete
- Visible and Invisible
