Root Explanation

Hubless → It is formed from "hub" (meaning the central part of a wheel or a focal point) and "-less" (meaning without). The word "hubless" describes something that lacks a central hub or focal point.

Memory Tip

Think of something that is 'without' ('-less') a 'hub' — that's why hubless means lacking a central part.
