Root Explanation

The word 'sparklet' is formed from 'spark' (from Old English 'spearca', meaning a small particle of fire or light) and the diminutive suffix '-let' (meaning small or little). Therefore, 'sparklet' refers to a small spark or a tiny particle of light.

Memory Tip

Think of a 'spark' as a small particle of fire, and the '-let' means little, so a sparklet is a little spark.
