Root Explanation

Nondemanding → It is formed from "non-" (meaning not) and "demanding" (from the verb "demand", which comes from Old French *demander*, meaning to ask or require). The word "nondemanding" means not requiring or asking for much effort or attention.

Memory Tip

Think of 'non-' meaning not, and 'demanding' referring to something that requires effort. So, nondemanding describes something that does not require much effort.
