'weedless' originates from the Old English word 'wēod,' meaning 'plant not valued for use or beauty,' combined with the suffix '-less,' indicating 'without.'

'wēod' transformed into the Middle English word 'weed,' and eventually became the modern English word 'weedless' by adding the suffix '-less.'

Initially, 'weed' referred to any plant growing where it was not wanted, and 'weedless' evolved to mean 'without such plants.'
