If  meaning  of a word  is derivative of the word/sound/roots,    the words should have same meaning irrespective of Language. But we find  meanings differ in each language. Does it mean each language has different roots?

It means two languages have different words and each language has its own grammar.

The Sanskrit words are derived from only Sanskrit verbal roots and not from any languages.

Namaskarams! .   There is one  interesting story/episode about how  sound is interpreted by different people:
DA, DA, DA--DAMA, DAYA AND DAANA (BRIHADAARANYAKA UPANISHAD)
the syllable 'da' is interpreted by  Gods, Humans and Demons as 'daman(control)', 'daana(charity)' and 'daya(compassion)' respectively, all being judged correct.
-regards.
