Root Explanation

Doubtlessly → It is formed from "doubt" (from Old French *douter*, meaning to fear or be uncertain) and "-lessly" (meaning without). The word "doubtlessly" means without doubt or certainly.

Memory Tip

Think of being 'without' ('-lessly') any 'fear or uncertainty' ('doubt') — that's why doubtlessly means certainly.
