Root Explanation

Inclusivity → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not or into) and "clusus" (from Latin "claudere", meaning to close). The suffix "-ity" (meaning the state or quality of) indicates the quality of being open or not closed off. Thus, inclusivity refers to the quality of being open to all, not excluding anyone.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not closed' ('in-' and 'clusus') to remember that inclusivity means being open and welcoming to everyone.
