Default Re: prefixes

You can add the prefix "in" to both words to make invent and inscribe, if that's any help.

You can also have "circumscribe" and "circumvent", "prescribe" and "prevent", "subscribe" and "subvent"... there may be more, those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head.
