PASSAGE
Consider the following set of Latin words and their English derivatives: progredi → progress; regredi → regress; congredi → congress; aggredi → aggress.
A student analyzes these words and concludes: 'The root -gredi/-gressi means to step/move, and the prefixes (pro-, re-, con-, ad-) modify direction.' The student then sees the English word digress and its Latin source digredi. Based on strict morphological analysis of the prefix and root, which meaning of digredi is most precisely correct?
