Learn Spanish (Latin America): Es hiperdifícil esquivar al enemigo con este blindaje superpesado. - It is hyper-difficult to dodge the enemy with this super-heavy armor.

In Spanish, intensifying prefixes like hiper-, super-, and re- are attached directly to the base word they modify. You should not use a space or a hyphen, so it must be written as superpesado, never super pesado or super-pesado.

Does the word difícil keep its accent mark in hiperdifícil just because the original word has one?

Not exactly; the newly formed word must evaluate standard Spanish accent rules from scratch. Hiperdifícil has its spoken stress on the second-to-last syllable (fí) and ends in a consonant other than 'n' or 's' (it ends in 'l'). Therefore, it requires a written accent mark on its own merit, which just happens to match the original word.

Is there a difference in intensity between hiper- and super- in this sentence?

Yes, there is a subtle difference. While both are conversational ways to say 'extremely', hiper- generally implies a stronger, more exaggerated or hyperbolic intensity than super-. The armor is very heavy (superpesado), making the act of dodging feel almost impossibly hard (hiperdifícil).

Why do we say esquivar al enemigo instead of just esquivar el enemigo?
