Root Explanation

**Immensurable** → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not) and "mensurabilis" (from Latin, meaning measurable). The word "immensurable" means not able to be measured or beyond measurement.

Memory Tip

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