priorityn.優(yōu)先；優(yōu)先權；[數(shù)] 優(yōu)先次序；優(yōu)先考慮的事。prior+ity，抽象名詞后綴-ity表condition or quality of being…于是priority就是state of being earlier。而prior實際=pr+ior，pr就是前綴pro,pre，與日耳曼詞源的fore adj.以前的同源，-ior則是拉丁形容詞比較級后綴，因此prior就相當于earlier。再如junior相當于younger，senior相當于older等。

polln.投票；民意測驗，v.投票；進行民意測驗，adj.無角的；剪過毛的；修過枝的。這個單詞的動詞和形容詞含義都來自其名詞含義，表示“頭”。于是poll tax是人頭稅，Gallop poll是著名的蓋洛普民意測驗，pollard是截去樹梢的樹或角被割下的動物（樹梢是樹的頭，角長在動物頭上哈）。最搞的則是polliwog n.蝌蚪，這里wog同wiggle v.擺動，蝌蚪不就是搖擺著前進的一只大腦袋嘛！

Indonesian.印度尼西亞。Indo+nesia，Indo比較明顯，指印度洋，而-nesia這個成分表示島嶼（群島），于是Indonesia就是“印度洋中的群島”。對比Micronesia密克羅尼西亞群島（micro表示小，小島群島）和Polynesia波利尼西亞群島（Poly表示多，很多個小島組成的群島）等。
