Root Explanation

Geographic → It is formed from "geo-" (from Greek "geōs", meaning earth) and "graphic" (from Greek "graphikos", meaning relating to writing or drawing). The word "geographic" refers to something that relates to the earth's surface and its features, often in terms of mapping or describing locations.

Memory Tip

Think of 'geo-' meaning 'earth' and 'graphic' relating to 'writing' or 'drawing' — so geographic means describing or mapping the earth.
