@Equinox: At least the reason(s), or lack thereof, that trigger the change --Backinstadiums (talk) 18:45, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Backinstadiums: I'm sorry but I still have no idea what you mean. Can you please show some words with this prefix that are confusing you, and explain why? Equinox 21:39, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Equinox: the times that it DOES become ant-, what triggers such change? --Backinstadiums (talk) 23:44, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
