Answer 2

A root word provides the foundation for a word's meaning, which is the fourth option. A root word is the basic word without adding any suffixes or prefixes. New words can be made from a root word, and their meanings are going to vary based on the prefixes or suffixes added to the noun. When a root word is found in a text, the context might take the reader to the origin of the word and make the reader better aware of the use and signification in a sentence or paragraph.
