Root Explanation

Unwooded → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "wooded" (from "wood" meaning an area covered with trees, plus the suffix "-ed" indicating a state or condition). The word "unwooded" means not having trees or lacking a forested area.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') having trees ('wooded') — that's why unwooded means an area without trees.
