Etymology
Superglue comes from the parts super and glue, where super means 'very' or 'above' and glue means 'sticky stuff'. It began as a brand name for a fast, very strong glue used for quick household repairs, so thinking of it as a 'super' glue helps you remember it is extra strong and works fast.
