Have you ever been in an echoless room?

Root Explanation

Echoless → It is formed from "echo" (from Greek "ēchō", meaning sound or reverberation) and "-less" (meaning without). The word "echoless" means without sound or reverberation.

Memory Tip

Think of 'echo' as a sound that reflects back, and when something is 'echoless', it means there is no sound reflecting back.
