Morphology
TRAC = T + R + A + C
This is an acronym: the component letters do not correspond to productive English morphemes and do not allow learners to derive the meaning.
Etymology
TRAC is often an acronym, a name made from the first letters of a longer title, for example T, R, A, C from 'Technical Review and Approval Committee'. So thinking of its letters helps you remember that TRAC usually names a group or system that checks and approves technical work.
