Chapelled

/ˈtʃæpəld/ adjective

Definition

Having a chapel or equipped with a chapel; provided with one or more chapels.

Etymology

From chapel plus the suffix -ed, which creates adjectives meaning 'having' or 'furnished with' (as in 'talented' or 'armed').

Kelly Says

The -ed suffix can work as an adjective to mean 'having' something—a 'long-haired person' has long hair, and a 'chapelled building' has a chapel, showing how one suffix does double duty.
