I just watched a movie with an amazing enactor playing the lead role.

Oh really? What was the movie about?

It was a drama about a family going through tough times, and the enactor really brought the story to life.

That sounds interesting! I love when actors can make you feel the emotions of the characters.

Root Explanation

Enactor → It is formed from "en-" (meaning to cause to be or to make) and "act" (from Latin "agere", meaning to do or to perform) and "-or" (meaning one who). The word "enactor" refers to one who causes something to be done or performs an action.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who 'makes' ('en-') something happen by 'doing' ('act') — that's why an enactor is someone who performs an action.
