Root Explanation

Enrich → It is formed from "en-" (meaning to cause to be) and "rich" (from Old English "rice", meaning powerful or wealthy). The word "enrich" means to make something richer or to enhance its value or quality.

Memory Tip

Think of 'causing to be' ('en-') more 'wealthy' or 'powerful' ('rich') — that's why enrich means to make something better or more valuable.
