============================

You can add “must-“ to a verb, such as “have” (or “see” or “read”) to form a noun, which describes things that you think people should have (or see, read, do etc.) So, for today’s word, a must-have is something that you think people should get. It is used in spoken English, and a lot in journalism, especially fashion magazines.

Fashion magazines always talk about the must-have items for the season. Of course, the Internet does too.
