Root Explanation

Noncommitted → It is formed from "non-" (meaning not) and "committed" (from Latin "committere", meaning to entrust or to commit). The word "noncommitted" means not having made a commitment or not being bound to a particular course of action.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('non-') being added to 'committed' — this helps you remember that noncommitted means not being bound to any commitment.
