Root Explanation

Indefatigably → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not), "defatigabilis" (from Latin "defatigare", meaning to tire out), and "-ly" (meaning in a manner). The word "indefatigably" means in a manner that is not able to be tired out, or persistently without fatigue.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' being able to be 'tired out' — that's why indefatigably means doing something persistently without getting tired.
