Hi, sorry for the slow reply – thank you for that, I see what you mean, perhaps it does not take the prefix! I wonder if there is still a connection, but without knowing for sure indeed I will change that.

One question though: in ex.1, p.4, are you sure “delete” belongs on this list? Oxford Dictionary says it came from the Latin word “delere”. Also there seems to be no such root-word if you remove the prefix (“lete”), so it would be better to use another example here, like “delist”, for example.
