Root Explanation

Bodysuit → It is formed from "body" (from Old English "bodig", meaning the physical structure of a person or animal) and "suit" (from Old French "suite", meaning a set of clothing or attire). The word "bodysuit" refers to a fitted garment that covers the body, typically made of stretchy material.

Memory Tip

Think of the word 'body' as referring to the physical form and 'suit' as a set of clothing. A bodysuit is a piece of clothing that fits closely to the body.
