Root Explanation

Engined → It is formed from "engine" (from Old French *engin*, meaning cleverness or skill) and the suffix "-ed" (indicating a state or condition). The word "engined" refers to something that has been equipped with or powered by an engine.

Memory Tip

Think of 'engine' as a clever mechanism that powers something, and '-ed' indicates that it is in a state of being powered.
