Root Explanation

Impeccability → It is formed from "im-" (meaning not) and "peccare" (meaning to sin or do wrong) combined with the suffix "-ability" (meaning the quality of being able to). The word "impeccability" refers to the quality of being without sin or fault.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('im-') doing anything wrong ('peccare') — that's why impeccability means the quality of being faultless.
