What is the root word of confinement?

The root word of confinement is fine.

Here's why:

* Confinement means the state of being imprisoned or restricted.

* The prefix "con-" in this case means "with" or "together."

* Fine can mean "limit" or "boundary," which aligns with the idea of being restricted.

Therefore, "confinement" means "being held together within a limit or boundary."
