Root Explanation

Indomitableness is formed from "in-" (meaning not), "domitare" (from Latin, meaning to tame), and "-ness" (meaning the state of being). The word describes the state of being not able to be tamed or subdued.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('in-') being able to 'tame' ('domitare') something, which helps you remember that indomitableness means the state of being untamable.
