Root Explanation

Apolitically → It is formed from "a-" (meaning without) and "political" (from Greek "politikos", meaning of or relating to citizens or the state). The word "apolitically" means in a manner that is without political interest or involvement.

Memory Tip

Think of 'a-' meaning without, and 'political' relating to citizens or the state — so apolitically means acting without political interest.
