De-and Con- have nearly opposite meanings. Think about the meaning of destroying, and then write a word that means the opposite and uses the prefix con-

Answer

The word is "constructing".

Explanation:

A prefix can be defined as a letter or group of letters added to the beginning of a word with the intention of forming a different word. The prefix de- is added to a word to convey removal, separation, negation, reversal, etc. On the other hand, the prefix con- conveys association and togetherness. As was stated in the question, they are nearly opposite meanings. Therefore, if we think of the word "destroying" and its meaning - demolishing, knocking down, putting an end to the existence of something -, the word that uses the prefix con- and that means the opposite is "constructing". To construct means to put up, to build, to set up, or to establish something.

Destroying is the present continuous tense for destroy.

Example of the meaning it can give to words includes something constructed or artificial, something hypothetical or rather fictional, other times it related to the concept of conlangs, conworlds the list goes on.
