Question

Which word is not derived from the Latin preposition ex?

A.excerpt

B.exorbitant

C.exposition

D.extraterrestrial

Answer 1

It's also because in that word extraterrestrial there is a separate prefix called extra- (to add on to what taskmasters said)

Answer 2

The word which is not derived from the Latin preposition “ex” is:

D. extraterrestrial

This is because when you pick out the prefix “ex” from the word, the root word can still stand alone with its own meaning considering its origin.
