Root Explanation

Noninfluence → It is formed from "non-" (meaning not) and "influence" (from Latin "influere", meaning to flow into). The word "noninfluence" means the absence of influence or the state of not being influenced.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('non-') having an effect or 'flowing into' ('influere') something — that's why noninfluence means not being affected.
