multifunctional

/ˌməɫtiˈfəŋkˌʃənəɫ/ adj

Having multiple functions.

Word Origin Multi- from Latin multus 'many' and function from Latin fungi 'to perform' — so multifunctional means performing many functions. The root fungi also gives us defunct (no longer performing, dead) and perfunctory (performed superficially). The multi- prefix is everywhere: multilingual, multicultural, multitude.
