Ludo (N):
A board game played with dice in which the one who reaches the destination first wins. Yes people we used to play this game right? Then now we will use it to make us remember few words for GRE.
Prelude (N):
An introductory performance; preamble; preface; introduction; prologue.
“Pre” means “before” and “lude” means “to play”, thus the idea is “to play beforehand”.
Elude (V):
Avoid, dodge, evade, escape, circumvent, bilk.
(e + lude)
Example:
The thief eluded police for a long time.
Delude (V):
Deceive; begule; hoodwink; swindle; cheat; defraud; mislead; outwit.
It can be broken as “De” which means “out” and “lude”, which means play, thus the meaning develops as “to outplay” someone.
Ludicrous (Adj):
Absurd; laughable; ridiculous; risible.
(Ludricus means sportive).
Ludification (N):
A deception; mocking jest.
