The word that has a Greek or Latin word root meaning "speak" is B. verdict. The root "dict" comes from Latin "dicere," which means "to say" or "to speak."

  • Spectacle: from Latin "spectaculum," meaning "to look at."
  • Inaudibly: from Latin "audire," meaning "to hear."
  • Microphones: from Greek "phonÄ“," meaning "sound" or "voice."

So, the correct answer is B. verdict.
