Root Breakdown
Root-derived=tag
tag has an uncertain origin and is only loosely grouped under tact; its link to tangere is not established, so treat it as a standalone word rather than a clear member of the family. A tag is something attached so it touches/hangs on an object; the digital senses (tag a photo, hashtag) extend the labeling idea.
