Root Explanation

Campaign → It originates from the French word 'campagne' (meaning open country or field), which itself comes from the Latin 'campania' (meaning level country or plain). The word 'campaign' refers to a series of planned activities or operations, originally in a military context, conducted in a specific area or field.

Memory Tip

Imagine a series of organized activities happening in an 'open field' — that's how 'campaign' relates to its roots.
