Root Explanation

Leafiest → It is formed from "leaf" (from Old English "leāf", meaning the foliage of a plant) and "-iest" (a superlative suffix indicating the most). The word "leafiest" means having the most leaves or being the most full of foliage.

Memory Tip

Think of 'leaf' as the part of a plant that is full of greenery, and '-iest' means the most. So, when you hear 'leafiest', imagine a plant that is the most full of leaves.
