Root Explanation

Evolvement → It is formed from "e-" (a variant of "ex-", meaning out of or from) and "volvere" (meaning to roll or turn). The word "evolvement" refers to the process of rolling out or developing from a previous state.

Memory Tip

Think of something 'rolling out' ('volvere') from a previous state ('e-') — that's why evolvement means the process of development.
