Root Explanation

Unsphere → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "sphere" (from Greek "sphaira", meaning globe or ball). The word "unsphere" means to remove from a spherical form or to negate the spherical quality.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') being applied to a 'globe' ('sphere') — that's why unsphere means to take something out of a spherical shape.
