Root Explanation

Synergia → It is derived from the Greek word "synergos" (συνεργός), where "syn-" (meaning together) and "ergon" (meaning work) combine to convey the idea of working together. The term refers to the cooperative interaction of different agents or elements to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their individual effects.

Memory Tip

Think of 'working together' ('syn-') to achieve a common goal ('ergon'). This helps you remember that 'synergia' means the combined effort of different elements.
