Root Explanation

Reformational → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again) and "formare" (meaning to shape or form) and the suffix "-ational" (indicating a process or action). The word "reformational" refers to the process of shaping or forming something again, often in a way that improves it.

Memory Tip

Think of 'shaping again' — 're-' means again, 'formare' means to shape, and '-ational' indicates a process. This helps you remember that 'reformational' relates to the process of making improvements.
