Root Explanation
Spotlessness → It is formed from "spot" (from Old English *spon*, meaning a mark or stain) and "-less" (meaning without). The word "spotlessness" means the state of being without marks or stains, hence being perfectly clean.
Memory Tip
Think of being 'without' ('-less') any 'marks' or 'stains' ('spot') — that's what spotlessness means.
