Root Explanation

The word 'wiggier' is derived from 'wiggly' (from the Middle English 'wigglen', meaning to move in a twisting or undulating manner) and the comparative suffix '-ier' (meaning more). Thus, 'wiggier' means more wiggly or having a greater degree of wiggle than something else.

Memory Tip

Think of something that moves in a twisting way ('wiggly') and remember that 'wiggier' means it moves even more that way.
