Synonyms & Antonyms

Root Explanation

Unfussiest → It is formed from the prefix "un-" (meaning not) and the root "fussy" (from the dialectal English *fuss*, meaning to show excessive concern or worry) with the superlative suffix "-est" (indicating the highest degree). The word "unfussiest" means the least concerned or worried, or the most easy-going.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' being added to 'fussy' — so 'unfussiest' means someone who is not at all concerned or worried, making them the easiest to please.
