Question

What is an adverb with the root mer/mar

Answer 1

Answer:

An adverb is a word or phrase used to qualify or modify an adjective, a verb, another adverb or a word group. It usually express a relation of place, time, manner, degree, etc. Some adverbs starting with the root mer/mar are:

mercurially, mercenarily, mercifully, merely, marginally, martially or marvelously.

Answer 2

These ROOT-WORDS are MAR, MARI, & MER meaning SEA & POOL. It comes from the Latin mare which means SEA. The SEA was of the greatest importance to the Romans. Mare Liberum, the open sea: Mare Clausum, the closed Sea: and Mare Nostrum, our sea which is now called the Mediterranean Sea. All the words on this list have a musical sound, from MERmaid to MARina. “The Ancient Mariner" sounds much more musical than “The Old Sailor" which means the same thing.
