Root Explanation

Lushest → It is formed from "lush" (of uncertain origin, possibly from Middle English *lushe*, meaning tender or juicy) and the superlative suffix "-est" (meaning most). The word "lushest" describes something that is the most rich, abundant, or luxurious in growth or appearance.

Memory Tip

Think of something that is the 'most rich' or 'abundant' — 'lush' suggests richness, and adding '-est' means it's the highest degree of that quality.
