What is the meaning of the root word ten?

I think you are thinking of the word "tenuous" which derives from the Latin root "tenuis" meaning thin. This would appear to be related to the Latin "tendere" meaning to stretch, which itself derives from the Greek word "teinein" meaning the same thing, and is the root of such words as "tendon", "tend", "tendency", "pretend", "intention", "contender" and many others. But there is also the word "tenure" which comes from the Latin root "teneo", to hold, as do the words "tenacious", "tenacity", "retention" and so on.
