The root or base word of a word is the simple word before suffixes or prefixes are added.
For example: Life is the root word of 'lifelessness'. If you remove the prefixes '-less' and '-ness', the end result will be the word 'life'.
In this case, all you have to do is dissect the word. Piteousness.
Piteousness = pity + less + ness
If you take out the suffixes ('-less' and '-ness'), you get the word 'pity'.
So the root word of piteousness is pity.
