Root Explanation

The word 'bodyside' is formed from 'body' (from Old English 'bodig', meaning the physical structure of a person or animal) and 'side' (from Old English 'side', meaning the lateral part of something). Together, 'bodyside' refers to the side of the body.

Memory Tip

Think of the 'body' as the physical structure and 'side' as the lateral part — so 'bodyside' means the side of the body.
