The root of a word is its origin.
If an English word has Latin roots, this means that it is taken from Latin words.
For example, the word salvation has Latin roots. It comes from the Latin word salve, which means "health". Nowadays salvation means spiritual health, but in those days it meant all kinds of health and wellbeing. People said "Salve!" whenever they met - it was the Latin way of saying "hello".
By contrast, the word hello has Germanic roots. It comes from the German word heil, which means "health", "wellbeing", etc. So whenever you say, "Hello," or even, "Hi," you are really saying something like: "Peace be with you! I hope you are in every way healthy."
