The word "indiscriminations" is derived from the combination of two root words: "indiscriminate" and "discrimination".
- "Indiscriminate" comes from the Latin word "indiscriminatus", formed by combining the prefix "in-" (meaning "not" or "without") and "discriminatus" (past participle of "discriminare", meaning "to separate" or "to distinguish").
- "Discrimination" comes from the Latin word "discriminatio", which is derived from the verb "discriminare". This verb is formed by combining "dis-" (meaning "apart" or "asunder") and "crimen" (meaning "judgment" or "charge").
Therefore, "indiscriminations" can be understood as the plural form of "indiscrimination", formed by adding the suffix "-s" to "indiscrimination".
