  1. Mapping the Master Words We’re using the metaphor of a bride and groom to illustrate that the Master Words embody the joining of two word families, each of which has many relatives. Some of the relatives are close and easy to recognize as members of the same word family.

You don’t have to invite all of them. Just try not to confuse them with other negative-making prefixes, such as dis-, mis-, in-.
