sub- simply means under , but hypo- is to minimize a thing , like "hypofunction" which means reduction in function , an other e.g. is hypothalamus in the human brain , it means a small thalamus , thalamus is an other structure in the brain but larger than the hypothalamus , so that the idiom hypothalamus , I think "hypo-" is used wrong in medicine , in the meaninig of under , like " hypoglossal nerve" and the wanted meaning is " under the tongue " and most medical references talk about hypothalamus as it is under the thalamus not as a structure smaller than the thalamus , and you don't find "hypo" in the medical dictionary in the meaning of "under " but in the meaning of "reduction or smaller " .
From what I've read (within the past 5 minutes of research), it just appears as though "Hypo-" was appropriated from the Greek language, and "Sub-" was appropriated from the Latin language.
It appears they were used in either language to mean (generally) the same thing; the English language just couldn't agree on which Indo-European language it should take this morphograph from, so it chose both.
The English language does this quite often since it is an amalgamation of multiple Indo-European Languages (partially Germanic, Latin and Anglo-French).
However, when it comes specifically to Greek morphological appropriation, it is most commonly done in English by specific fields, typically in academia, to form a more distinct system of nomenclature.
This is why you may see the prefix "Hypo-" being used more often in chemistry, Biology and other sciences, whereas the prefix "Sub-" may be used more ubiquitously in common terminology.
The moisture difference between Wood floors and wood sub floors would be 4% Plywood sub floors are about 12 to 13% here in Northern Calif. and the wood flooring is usually from 7-9 % .Now of coarse moisture and RH plays into the picture too. The ocean & lake areas may have a greater % of moisture in their wood sub floors due to greater RH

'Sub' as in 'subhuman' would do or 'hypo' as in hypodermic the latter meaning under the skin. Don't confuse hypo as a prefix with hyper; there is a major difference between someone who is hypoglycaemic and hyperglycaemic. .....................................................................................................................
They are sub-words from Classical Greece. Hypo ; less or under. the standard Hyper ; more or greater that the standard. e.g. Hypoglycaemic ; Too little sugar in the blood stream (diabetic) Hyperactive ; too active that normal people.
Sub is Latin and means "under" (the Greek equivalent is hypo).
explain the difference between systems and sub systems
== ==
Hypo relates to a lack of whatever stem it is attached to, and hyper relates to an abundance. Ex: hypoglycemic: low blood sugar | hypoglycemic: high blood sugar.
The Greek syllables 'hypo-' don't constitute a root. Instead, they're a prefix. The meaning is under. The equivalent in Latin is 'sub-'.
A Sub Woofer is a type of speaker, but the main difference between normal speakers and a sub woofer is in the range of sound it produces. A sub woofer produces the lower pitches that other speakers can't clearly put out.
