Root Explanation

Incorporation → It is formed from "in-" (meaning into) and "corporare" (meaning to form into a body). The word describes the act of forming something into a unified whole or body.

Memory Tip

Think of putting things 'into' ('in-') a 'body' ('corporare') to create a unified entity — that's what incorporation means.
