Root Explanation

Concentricity → It is formed from "con-" (meaning together) and "centrum" (from Latin, meaning center) and the suffix "-ity" (meaning the state or quality of). The word describes the quality of having a common center, as in circles that share the same center point.

Memory Tip

Think of circles that are 'together' ('con-') around a common 'center' ('centrum') — that's what concentricity means.
