A word part is basically a couple of simple letters such as in, un, de. The simple use of putting the word part "un" in front of words completely changes the meaning to the opposite. ie. Something necessary becomes unnecessary, usual to unusual. Thereby simply adding a wordpart can completely change the meaning of a word.

Root
A root is the base part of a word that carries its primary meaning, while a combining form is a root combined with a vowel, often used to connect it to other roots or suffixes in medical or scientific terminology. For example, in the term "cardiology," "cardi" is the combining form derived from the root "card" (meaning heart). The combining vowel typically used is "o," allowing for easier pronunciation when linking to other elements.
