Courage is the root word. This word cannot be split up into more parts and still keep any meaning.

"Cou-" is not a prefix, and therefore cannot be a prefix on the word "rage".

"-ous" is added to nouns (such as courage) to make them into adjectives.

The root of the word 'courage' is from the Old French word "corage," which comes from the Latin word "cor" meaning heart. This signifies that courage is associated with one's heart or inner strength.
