That would be a prefix. Examples include "un" or "non" to make the new word the opposite of the base word: "intelligent" versus "unintelligent" or "working" versus "nonworking."
The base is not always a word on its own, as with the prefix "ab-", which forms words such as "abstract" or "abscond" or "ad-," which forms words such as "adhere" or "admit."

This is a prefix. Examples are re, un, in, and dis. They are added to a word to change its meaning.
