Synonyms & Antonyms

Root Explanation

The word 'cuppy' originates from the word 'cup' (from Old English 'cuppe', meaning a small container for drinking) and the diminutive suffix '-y' (meaning small or little). Therefore, 'cuppy' refers to something that is small or resembling a cup.

Memory Tip

Think of a 'cup' as a small container, and the '-y' makes it sound even smaller, so 'cuppy' means something that is like a little cup.
