In working as an ASVAB tutor who teaches an ASVAB prep course, I remind my students to review Greek and Latin roots to review for the Word Knowledge section of the ASVAB.  Many of the root words have equivalents.  Greek roots have equivalents in Latin and vice versa.  Do you know what the root word pan- means?  Do you know the Latin equivalent of the root word pan-?  There are a number of words that consist of the Greek root pan-.  Examples include pandemic, panacea, and panoramic.   I will present the answer and explanation tomorrow.
