Root Explanation

Dissemination → It is formed from "dis-" (meaning apart) and "seminare" (meaning to sow or scatter). The word describes the act of scattering or spreading information widely, much like sowing seeds in a field.

Memory Tip

Think of spreading seeds 'apart' ('dis-') to grow new plants — that's how dissemination means spreading information widely.
