Root Explanation

Soggiest → It is formed from "soggy" (from Middle English *sogge*, meaning soaked or wet) and the superlative suffix "-est" (meaning most). The word "soggiest" means the most soaked or wet.

Memory Tip

Think of something that is the 'most soaked' — 'soggy' means wet, and adding '-est' shows it is the highest degree of wetness.
