Root Explanation

Worshipless → It is formed from "worship" (from Old English *weorþscipe*, meaning worthiness or honor) and "-less" (meaning without). The word "worshipless" means without worthiness or honor, particularly in a religious or reverential context.

Memory Tip

Think of being 'without' ('-less') 'worthiness' or 'honor' ('worship') — that's what worshipless means.
