Root Explanation

Infuriation → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not) and "furiare" (from Latin, meaning to rage or to be furious) and the suffix "-ation" (indicating a process or action). The word "infuriation" refers to the process of becoming extremely angry or enraged.

Memory Tip

Think of the prefix 'in-' meaning not, combined with 'furiare' which relates to rage — this helps you remember that infuriation is the process of becoming very angry.
