Root Explanation
Prover → It is formed from "pro-" (meaning for or in favor of) and "verus" (meaning true). The word "prover" refers to someone who demonstrates or establishes the truth of something.
Memory Tip
Think of someone who is 'for' the truth ('pro-') and is showing it ('verus'). This helps you remember that a prover is someone who proves something to be true.
