Root Explanation

Seastrand is formed from "sea" (from Old English "sǣ", meaning the ocean or large body of saltwater) and "strand" (from Old English "strand", meaning the shore or bank of a river or sea). The word "seastrand" refers to the shore or bank of the sea.

Memory Tip

Think of the 'sea' as the large body of water and 'strand' as the shore — together, they describe the area where the land meets the ocean.
