Root Explanation

Binaurally → It is formed from "bi-" (meaning two) and "auris" (meaning ear) combined with the adverbial suffix "-ly". The word describes something that relates to or is perceived through both ears.

Memory Tip

Think of 'two' ('bi-') ears ('auris') working together — that's what binaurally means, relating to both ears.
