Root Explanation

Innumerable → It is formed from "in-" (meaning not) and "numerabilis" (from Latin, meaning able to be counted). The word "innumerable" means not able to be counted or countless.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('in-') being able to be 'counted' ('numerabilis') — that's why innumerable means countless.
