Root Explanation

Pronouncer → It is formed from "pronounce" (from Latin "pronuntiare", meaning to declare or announce) and "-er" (meaning a person who). A pronouncer is a person who declares or announces something, often in a formal context.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who 'declares' ('pronounce') something — the '-er' indicates that this person is the one doing the declaring.
