Root Explanation

Distorter → It is formed from "dis-" (meaning apart) and "tor" (from Latin "tor", meaning one who does). The word "distorter" refers to one who causes something to be apart from its true form or meaning.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who takes something and makes it 'apart' from its original shape or meaning — 'dis-' means apart, and 'tor' indicates a person who does something.
