Explanation:

• An antonym in English is a word that is inverse in meaning and importance to another word.

• Antonyms can likewise be made by adding prefixes to a word.

• Prefixes are letters which we add to the start of a word to make another word with alternate importance.

• Prefixes can, for instance, make a new or another word inverse in importance to the word the prefix is appended to.

• For instance, by adding the prefix dis to the word concur we get the antonym clash.

• Some of the prefixes are utilized to frame the antonym or inverse of a word (opposite).

• Prefixes are fastened. We can add prefixes (putting before the stem of the word) to modifiers to shape new words.

• The accompanying prefixes are utilized to shape alternate extremes of descriptors: un-, il-, im-, in-, ir-, and non-.

For the given words, we can form the opposites by changing the prefixes suitably as follows-

1. inward- outward

2. overfed- underfed  

3. decrease-increase

4. pre-war- postwar

5. pro-cricket- noob-cricket

6. sympathy- Apathy                                                                  

7. discourage-encourage

8. accord- withhold

9. attach-detach

10. macrocosm-microcosm
