Root Explanation

Divinest → It is formed from "divine" (from Latin "divinus", meaning godlike or pertaining to a god) and the suffix "-est" (used to form the superlative). The word "divinest" means the most godlike or the highest in divine qualities.

Memory Tip

Think of something that is the most 'godlike' ('divine') — the '-est' shows it is the highest degree of that quality.
