What does the root word tol mean?

The root word "tol" doesn't have a specific meaning on its own. It's not a standalone root word in English or other major languages.

However, it's possible you're thinking of a word that *contains* "tol" as part of its root. Here are some possibilities:

* Tolerate: This word comes from the Latin "tolerare," which itself comes from "toler," meaning "to bear, to endure, to support."

* Toll: This word comes from the Old English "tol," meaning "a tax, a fee."
