Root Explanation

Anticorporate is formed from "anti-" (meaning against) and "corporate" (from Latin "corporatus", meaning formed into a body). The word describes a stance or attitude that is against corporate entities or practices.

Memory Tip

Think of being 'against' ('anti-') something that is 'formed into a body' ('corporate') — that's why anticorporate means opposing corporate structures.
