Root Explanation

Superliner → It is formed from "super-" (meaning above or beyond) and "liner" (from the word 'line', meaning a vessel or ship). The word "superliner" refers to a ship that is above or beyond the standard size or luxury of typical liners.

Memory Tip

Think of a ship that is 'above' ('super-') the usual 'line' of ships in terms of size or luxury — that's what a superliner is.
