Pro यानी आगे, जैसे progress। Prominent चीज़ बाक़ियों से आगे उभरकर दिखती है; prominent व्यक्ति भीड़ से अलग, महत्वपूर्ण और प्रसिद्ध होता है।

PRO means forward, as in 'progress'. Something prominent stands forward from the rest, so it is clearly visible; a prominent person stands out and is important and well known.
