Understanding Words from Their
Parts: Over in a Word

Over is a part of a word that help you
understand the meaning of the word. At the
beginning of a word, over can mean “too much”
or “more than is good”
Example:
- One great danger to oceans worldwide is
overfishing.
(You see that overfishing means “taking too
many fish from the oceans”)

UNDERSTANDING WORDS THAT CAN BE
MORE THAN ONE PART OF SPEECH

A word might be both a noun and a verb. Often,
the meaning is similar. Sometimes it’s different.
Examples:
- There aren’t enough police in this city.
(In this sentence, police is a noun. It means
people whose job is protecting the public.)
- Governments have to police the oceans.
(Here, police is a verb. It means to keep order in
a place.)
