Synonyms & Antonyms

Root Explanation

Branchier → The word is derived from "branch" (from Old French *branche*, meaning a limb or division of a tree) and the suffix "-ier" (meaning one who or that which). Thus, "branchier" refers to something that has more branches or is characterized by branches.

Memory Tip

Think of a tree with many 'limbs' ('branch') and someone or something that has 'more' of them ('-ier'). This helps you remember that 'branchier' means having more branches.
