Root Explanation

Turbaned is derived from 'turban' (from Persian 'dulband', meaning a type of headwear) and the suffix '-ed' (indicating a state or condition). The word 'turbaned' describes someone who is in the state of wearing a turban.

Memory Tip

Imagine someone wearing a specific type of headwear ('turban') — the '-ed' shows that they are currently in that state, so 'turbaned' means they are wearing a turban.
