Root Explanation

Remonstrator → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again) and "monstrare" (meaning to show or demonstrate). The word refers to someone who shows or demonstrates again, often in the context of protest or objection.

Memory Tip

Think of someone 'showing' ('monstrare') their point 'again' ('re-') — that's why a remonstrator is someone who protests or objects by demonstrating their stance.
