What is the Latin and Greek root for vert?

The Latin root of "vert" is "vertere", which means "to turn" or "to change."

There is no direct Greek root for "vert." However, the Greek word "στρέφειν" (strephein), which means "to turn," is a cognate of "vertere" and shares the same Indo-European root.

Therefore, both Latin and Greek share a common origin for the concept of "turning" or "changing" that underlies the word "vert."
