Without a body; lacking physical form, or existing only as a spirit or abstract concept.
Compound of 'body' and the suffix '-less,' meaning 'without.' This word has been used since at least Shakespearean times to describe disembodied spirits, ghosts, or purely abstract entities.
Bodyless appears throughout literature to describe ghosts and spirits—Shakespeare used it, Milton used it—making it a perfect example of how the '-less' suffix lets us describe the absence of something physical by simply adding three letters.
