Root Explanation

Panoplied → It is formed from "panoply" (from Greek "panoplia", meaning full armor or complete equipment) and the suffix "-ed" (indicating a state or condition). The word "panoplied" means to be fully equipped or adorned, especially in a ceremonial or impressive manner.

Memory Tip

Think of being fully equipped or adorned, as in wearing complete armor ('panoply') — that's why 'panoplied' means to be in that state of full preparation.
