Question

accurate adj.准确的；精确的 (1) 道听途说的决然不能算作很准确的消息。(2) 经理让办公室职员认识到做精确记录的重要性。 The adjective accurate comes from the Latin roots ad curare, meaning "to take care," and that is precisely what you do when you make sure something is accurate. You take care to make sure it is perfectly correct: an accurate answer, an accurate headcount, an accurate assessment of the problem. By adding the Latin root in, meaning not, you can make the antonym inaccurate (not accurate).
