Root Explanation

Nonrestricted → It is formed from "non-" (meaning not) and "restricted" (from Latin "restrictus", meaning to bind back). The word "nonrestricted" means not bound back or not limited in any way.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('non-') limiting or 'binding back' ('restrictus') — that's why nonrestricted means there are no limits.
