Does the word environment contain from same root that means light as in sun?

No, the word "environment" does not share the same root as the word "light" in the sense of sunlight.

Environment comes from the Old French word "environ," meaning "surrounding" or "around."

Light comes from the Old English word "leoht," meaning "bright" or "shining."

While both words are related to natural phenomena, their roots are distinct.
