Beslipper

/bɪˈslɪpər/ verb

Definition

to put slippers on someone or to cover with slippers.

Etymology

From be- (prefix) + slipper (from slip, because slippers are easy to slip on). The verb form means to dress someone in slippers.

Kelly Says

Slipper comes from 'slip' because the shoe slips easily on and off your foot—it's a practical name that tells you what the object does, and this kind of descriptive naming is common in English footwear.
