common Latin roots of English words

[Ted Shoemaker]

Hello,

The following are common roots of English words. I'm willing to bet
that most of them are from Latin. Can anyone please give the Latin
meanings for them?

If any of these items are not Latin words, they may fairly be
considered off-topic.

cept, ceive, ceipt --
cur --
ducere --
facere --
ferre --
mittere --
ob --
plicare --
ponere --
sist --
tendere --
tenere --
-tion, -ation --

Thank you!
