Explanation:

The root "multi" (from Latin "multus") means "many" or "much". For example, in words like "multiple" (many instances), "multitude" (a great many), or "multiply" (to make many times). The other options: "one thousand" is a specific quantity, and "light" is unrelated. So the root "multi" means "many".

many
