# PREFIXES

**Prefixes** are part of Intents - they usually open up a user’s utterance. Prefixes are universal and allow to reduce the amount of questions in a given group of “question-response” matching.

**Examples of prefixes:**

*I want to buy = I want to make an order*\
*What’s in the offer = What is the offer of your company*
{% endhint %}
