Does Impunity Have a Prefix?

In the first paragraph, the two words "punish" and "impunity" share the same root. The prefix im- is added in front of a word to form the word with the opposite meaning and the suffix -ity expresses a state or condition. Therefore, we can say that impunity means the opposite of punishment.

What is the prefix of impunity?

If doing something usually results in punishment, but you do it with impunity, you will not be punished for the deed. ... The noun, impunity, comes from the Latin roots im- ("not") plus poena ("punishment"), a root which has also produced the word pain. Impunity, then, is the freedom from punishment or pain.

Is it with impunity or without impunity?

So, impunity means the absence of consequences or punishment. Even in the appropriate setting, when someone or something is wrongly going unpunished, I always want to say "without impunity," instead of the correct "with impunity." Probably, because it would be correct to say "without punishment."
