Explanation

Suffrage means the right to vote in political elections. The term comes from Latin 'suffragium' meaning voting tablet or ballot. The women's suffrage movement fought for voting rights for women. The word is unrelated to illness, clothing items, or childhood experiences - it specifically refers to voting rights.
