Ms. Adame 8 th Grade Language Arts

Many of the words we use today came from Greek or Latin words used in the past. A root is the basic element of a word. Most roots need to be combined with other elements in order to be a complete word. Remember: the roots, in most cases, are NOT words. They are PARTS of words. Being able to identify roots within words can help build your comprehension when you read.

aer, aero: air aerate: (verb) to expose to the circulation of air aerobic aerodynamic ambi, amphi: both, on both sides ambiguous: (adj.) having several possible meanings ambidextrous amphibian

amo: love amorous: (adj.) showing or expressing love amiable paramour andro: male androgynous: (adj.) having both male and female characteristics android androcentric
