Root Explanation

Coalitionist → It is formed from "coalition" (from Latin "coalitio", meaning a growing together or union) and "-ist" (meaning a person who practices or is concerned with something). A coalitionist is a person who is part of a coalition or alliance, working together with others for a common purpose.

Memory Tip

Think of a 'coalition' as a group that is 'growing together' and the '-ist' means a person involved. So, a coalitionist is someone who is part of a group working together.
