though given virus and radius are virii and radii respectively, if it WERE a noun, it would be prii if it followed that rule. But as it is only 1 syllable, it must be shortened to pri. Which, obviously became translated from the original Latin to become, in english, "pre-" being the word which is fixed (prefixed, being one such example) before a word to indicate that which comes before. Which is the meaning of prius.

Circle complete, now, wash your hands.

Awesome comments.  Interesting that the dictionary pronunciation appears to be different than that of the car, which is "pre-us" (not using official pronunciation syntax).
