Root Explanation

Hyperlink → It is formed from "hyper-" (from Greek "hyper", meaning over or beyond) and "link" (from Old English "linc", meaning a connection or bond). The word "hyperlink" refers to a connection that goes beyond traditional links, typically in a digital context.

Memory Tip

Think of 'hyper-' meaning 'beyond' and 'link' as a connection — a hyperlink is a connection that goes beyond standard links, often leading to more information.
