Root Explanation

Conglobe is formed from "con-" (meaning together) and "globus" (meaning sphere or ball). The word describes the act of forming something into a spherical shape or gathering together into a globe-like form.

Memory Tip

Think of bringing things 'together' ('con-') to form a 'sphere' ('globus') — that's what conglobe means.
