Root Explanation

Intraday is formed from "in-" (meaning within) and "tradi" (from Latin "diurnus", meaning daily). The word refers to events or activities that occur within a single day.

Memory Tip

Think of things happening 'within' ('in-') the same 'day' ('diurnus') — that's what intraday means.
