The prefixes **im- il-** and **ir-** are in fact a variety of **in-**:


 * **im-** is used before words beginning with **m** or **p**: //impersonal, immortal//.
 * **il-** is used before words beginning with **l**: //illegal//.
 * **ir-** is used with words beginning with **r**: //irregular//.

Most compounds with **non-** are written with a hyphen in British English, but not in American English: //non-alcoholic//, //nonalcoholic//.
