What does the greek root act mean?

The Greek root "act" is actually not a standalone Greek root. It's more likely that you're thinking of the Greek root "ag" or "act", which means "to do, to act, to drive, to lead."

Here are some examples of words that contain this root:

* Agony: intense pain or suffering

* Agitate: to make someone troubled or nervous

* Activist: someone who campaigns for political or social change

* Action: the process of doing something

* React: to respond to something

* Interact: to communicate or act together

* De facto: in fact, in reality (from Latin "de" + "facto", "from what has been done")

Keep in mind that this root can be combined with other prefixes and suffixes to create a variety of words with different meanings.
