antigambling

/ˌæntɪɡˈæmblɪŋ/ adj

Acting against or opposing gambling.

Word Origin Anti- from Greek 'against' and gambling from Old English gamen 'game, amusement' — so antigambling is literally 'against gaming.' The root gamen also gives us game, gamely, and gamesmanship. Interestingly, gamble originally meant 'to play games' but narrowed to 'risk money on games.' The anti- prefix is everywhere: antibody, antifreeze, antimatter.

adj Acting against or opposing gambling.

The organization launched an antigambling campaign to raise awareness.
