Root Explanation

Incomputably → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not) and "computare" (meaning to calculate or count) and the suffix "-ably" (meaning in a manner). The word means in a manner that cannot be calculated or counted.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('in-') being able to 'calculate' ('computare') something — that's why incomputably means something that cannot be counted.
