Root Explanation

Debtless → It is formed from "debt" (from Old French *dette*, meaning something owed) and "-less" (meaning without). The word "debtless" means without debt or free from obligations.

Memory Tip

Think of being 'without' ('-less') something you 'owe' ('debt') — that's why debtless means free from debt.
