What are some words with the root bell?

Answer 1

Sure! Some words with the root "bell" include "belligerent" (aggressively hostile), "bellicose" (demonstrating aggression and willingness to fight), and "rebellion" (an act of resistance against authority). These words all derive from the Latin word "bellum," meaning "war."

Answer 2

The reason you are confused is this word comes from Latin. In fact, many English words come from another language originally. In Latin, which used to be spoken in ancient Rome, the word "bellus" meant "war." So someone who was "bellicose" liked war, or liked to fight. There are some examples on this page, but I hope my explanation is also helpful to you.
