Root Explanation

Swishiest → It is formed from "swish" (of uncertain origin, possibly imitative of the sound made) and the suffix "-iest" (meaning most). The word "swishiest" describes something that has the most swish or is characterized by a swishing motion.

Memory Tip

Think of the sound made when something moves quickly through the air — that's the essence of 'swish'. When you add '-iest', it means it's the most swishing of all.
