codicioso
/kodiˈθjoso/ · B2 · adj
greedy, covetous
💰 codicioso = sounds like 'coddy-see-OH-so' — so greedy for more, oh!
From Latin cupiditia (desire, greed) via codicia, 'greed'. Spot codicia inside codicioso and add -oso (-ous, full of): full of greed. Link the sound 'cod-ee-see-OH-so' to 'cod, he sees gold, oh so wants it'.
