Synonyms & Antonyms

Root Explanation

Toastiest → It is formed from "toast" (from Old French *toster*, meaning to roast or brown) and "-iest" (a superlative suffix meaning most). The word "toastiest" means the most toasted or the most browned, typically referring to food that has been heated until crisp and golden.

Memory Tip

Think of something that has been 'roasted' ('toast') to the point of being the 'most' ('-iest') crispy and warm — that's what toastiest means.
