Root Explanation

Assenter → It is formed from "ad-" (meaning to) and "sentire" (meaning to feel or think). The word "assenter" refers to someone who agrees or expresses approval, thus indicating a person who feels or thinks in agreement with something.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who is 'agreeing' ('ad-' means to, and 'sentire' means to feel or think) — that's why an assenter is someone who expresses agreement.
