Root Explanation

Frosted → It is formed from "frost" (from Old English *forst*, meaning frozen dew or ice) and "-ed" (a suffix used to form the past participle). The word "frosted" means covered with frost or having a layer of ice.

Memory Tip

Think of 'frost' as a layer of ice, and the '-ed' indicates that something has been covered with that layer. So, when something is frosted, it has a coating of frost.
