Root Explanation

Webwork → The word is formed from "web" (from Old English *webb*, meaning a woven fabric or network) and "work" (from Old English *weorc*, meaning activity or labor). Together, these parts describe the activity or labor involved in creating or managing a network, particularly in a digital context.

Memory Tip

Think of a 'woven fabric' ('web') and the 'activity' ('work') involved in creating or managing it — that's what webwork means.
