Your forum root is where the index.php is located. The forum directory is the directory path where the forum's data will be stored on the server.

Nice try Ike.

Forum's Root and Forums Directory should be the same thing.

But there are those that will say the forums root is the directory ABOVE the forums directory.

yoursite.com = forums root
yoursite.com/forums = forums directory

So it all depends on who you are talking to at them time, I guess.

I tend to use 'forum root' in my installation .txt's. Personaly I am refering to the directory showthread.php is in (in most cases yourdomain.com/forum/)
