Answer: To conquer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The root vict is gotten from Latin and it means "to conquer''. It can be found in words like victorious, evict, convict, etc.

The word victorious means to be triumphant or conquer a particular thing. For example, the sentence "John was victorious when he played Chess with Bob". It means that John won and defeated Bob.
