#118 Terrific Terra

Published: Nov. 1, 2015, 7 a.m.

The Latin root word terr means “earth, land.” This Latin root is the word origin of a good number of English vocabulary words, including terrain, terrarium, and Mediterranean. The Latin root word terr is easily recalled through the English word terrain, for the terrain of an area is what the “earth” or “land” is like there.
