Root Explanation

Immeasurably → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not) and "measurable" (from Latin "mensurabilis", meaning able to be measured, from "metiri", meaning to measure). The word "immeasurably" means not able to be measured, indicating an extent or degree that is beyond measurement.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('in-') being able to be 'measured' ('measurable') — that's why immeasurably means something that cannot be measured.
