Root Explanation

Supersoft is formed from "super-" (meaning above or beyond) and "soft" (from Old English "softe", meaning gentle or yielding). The word describes something that is exceptionally soft, going beyond the usual softness.

Memory Tip

Think of something that is 'beyond' ('super-') just being 'gentle' or 'yielding' ('soft') — that's why supersoft means exceptionally soft.
