Root Explanation

Perspective → It is formed from "per-" (meaning through) and "specere" (meaning to look or see). The word refers to the way of looking at things through a particular viewpoint or angle.

Memory Tip

Think of looking 'through' ('per-') a lens to see things from a specific angle — that's what perspective means.
