Similarly, some are only derived from words for numbers inasmuch as they are word play. (Peta-is word play on penta-, for example. See its etymology for details.) The root language of a numerical prefix need not be related to the root language of the word that it prefixes. Some words comprising numerical prefixes are hybrid words.
Numerical prefixes for multiplication of compound or complex (as in complicated) features are created by adding kis to the basic numerical prefix, with the exception of numbers 2 and 3, which are bis- and tris-, respectively.
± (plus–minus sign) 1. Denotes either a plus sign or a minus sign. 2. Denotes the range of values that a measured quantity may have; for example, 10 ± 2 denotes an unknown value that lies between 8 and 12. ∓ (minus-plus sign) Used paired with ±, denotes the opposite sign; that is, + if ± is –, and – if ± is +.

The prefix was a part of the original metric system in 1795. It is not in very common usage, although the deca pascal is occasionally used by audiologists . The deca newton is also encountered occasionally, probably because it is an SI approximation of the kilogram-force .
The template common metric prefixes creates an infobox that lists the most commonly used metric prefixes. The list is a subset of the list in the 8th edition of the official brochure of the BIPM (SI units and prefixes).
A metric prefix is a unit prefix that precedes a basic unit of measure to indicate a ... 5 cm = 5 × 10 −2 m = 5 × 0.01 m = 0. ... which equals one thousand gram ...
Unlike derivational suffixes, English derivational prefixes typically do not change the lexical category of the base (and are so called class-maintaining prefixes). Thus, the word do, consisting of a single morpheme, is a verb, as is the word redo, which consists of the prefix re-and the base root do.
