Question

im- = \in, into\
migra = \move, wander\

which sentence uses the underlined word correctly?

his family will immigrate from canada and settle in india.
my mother emigrated from china and came to the united states.
yuri plans to immigrate from russia later this year.
i have always dreamed of leaving my homeland and emigrating to france.

Explanation:

Analyze word roots and prefixes

  • \(e-\) = "out of, from"
  • \(im-\) = "in, into"
  • \(migra\) = "move, wander"
  • Emigrate: To move out of/from a country.
  • Immigrate: To move into a country.

Evaluate each sentence context

  • "His family will immigrate from Canada..." (Incorrect: "from" requires "emigrate").
  • "My mother emigrated from China..." (Correct: "from" matches the prefix \(e-\) meaning "out of, from").
  • "Yuri plans to immigrate from Russia..." (Incorrect: "from" requires "emigrate").
  • "...leaving my homeland and emigrating to France." (Incorrect: "to" implies moving into, which requires "immigrating").

Identify the correct option

  • The second sentence correctly uses "emigrated" with the preposition "from".

Answer:

  • His family will immigrate from Canada and settle in India.
  • My mother emigrated from China and came to the United States. (Correct answer)
  • Yuri plans to immigrate from Russia later this year.
  • I have always dreamed of leaving my homeland and emigrating to France.
