Root Explanation

Sunsuit → The word is formed from "sun" (from Old English "sunne", meaning the star that provides light and warmth) and "suit" (from Old French "suite", meaning a set of clothing or attire). A sunsuit refers to a set of clothing designed for wearing in the sun, typically for protection or comfort in sunny weather.

Memory Tip

Think of the 'sun' providing warmth and light, and 'suit' as a set of clothing. A sunsuit is specifically designed to be worn in the sun.
