Root Explanation

Inimitably → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not) and "imitabilis" (from Latin, meaning able to be imitated). The word "inimitably" means in a manner that cannot be imitated or matched.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('in-') being able to be 'imitated' ('imitabilis') — that's why inimitably means something that cannot be copied.
