Root Explanation

This word originates from Greek 'anti-' (meaning against) and 'sag' (from 'sagere', meaning to perceive or to know). The word 'antisag' refers to something that opposes or counters perception or knowledge.

Memory Tip

Think of 'against' ('anti-') something that is 'perceived' or 'known' — that's why antisag means to counter perception.
