Root Explanation

Dashiest → It is formed from "dash" (from Middle English *dashe*, meaning to strike or move quickly) and the suffix "-iest" (meaning most). The word "dashiest" refers to the most striking or lively in appearance or manner.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who moves quickly and strikingly — that's what 'dash' means, and adding '-iest' indicates they are the most so.
