     209.  Certain prefixes or letters are disjoined to express tr and a following vowel.  The prefix is placed above the line, very close to the remainder of the word.

     2.  contract, contrary, control, contribute, contrast, counterpart, countersign.
     3.  construct, construction, constrain, constraint, construe, construed.
     4.  detriment, detrimental, deteriorate, detract, detraction.

Analogical Word-Beginnings—Compounds

     212.  Some very useful forms are obtained by joining simple syllable characters, such as in, un, dis, re, and non, to the signs for disjoined word-beginnings:

uncontrolled, redistribute, etc.
