Root Explanation

Prebooked → It is formed from "pre-" (meaning before) and "booked" (from the verb "book", which comes from Old English "bocian", meaning to reserve or arrange). The word "prebooked" means arranged or reserved in advance.

Memory Tip

Think of making a reservation "before" ("pre-") the actual event — that's why prebooked means to have something reserved ahead of time.
