Root Explanation

Friendliest → It is formed from "friend" (from Old English *freond*, meaning a person with whom one has a bond of mutual affection) and the suffix "-liest" (meaning most). The word "friendliest" means the most friendly or the most kind and amiable in nature.

Memory Tip

Think of a 'friend' as someone you have a bond with, and '-liest' means the most. So, when you think of 'friendliest', imagine the person who is the most kind and amiable among your friends.
