Root Explanation

Incomparable → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not) and "comparabilis" (from Latin, meaning able to be compared). The word "incomparable" means not able to be compared, indicating something so unique or exceptional that it has no equal.

Memory Tip

Think of something that is 'not' ('in-') 'able to be compared' ('comparabilis') — that's why we say it is incomparable.
