Did you hear about that old family estate?

Yeah, I heard it's impartible and can't be divided among the siblings.

That must make things complicated for them.

Definitely! It’s tough when such valuable property can't be shared.

Root Explanation

Impartible → It is formed from "im-" (meaning not) and "partibilis" (from Latin, meaning divisible). The word "impartible" means not able to be divided or shared.

Memory Tip

Think of something that cannot be 'divided' ('partibilis') — the 'im-' prefix means not, so impartible refers to something that cannot be shared.
