Unavoidable is an adjective that describes a situation or event that cannot be avoided, evaded, or prevented. It signifies something that is inevitable, certain, or bound to happen regardless of any efforts to prevent or escape it.
When an event or circumstance is deemed unavoidable, it means that it is impossible to steer clear of or avert in any way. This term often implies that the event is beyond human control or outside of one's ability to manipulate the outcome. For example, in natural disasters like earthquakes or hurricanes, the resulting destruction and loss of lives can be considered unavoidable due to their uncontrollable and unforeseeable nature.
The term can also be used in a more abstract sense, such as in interpersonal relationships. If a conflict or disagreement between individuals is deemed unavoidable, it suggests that despite attempts to reconcile or resolve the issues, it is ultimately unavoidable that tension or disagreement will persist in the relationship.
Overall, unavoidable encapsulates a sense of certainty and inevitability that something will occur or persist regardless of human intention, action, or intervention. It emphasizes the lack of control or ability to alter the course or outcome of a given situation or event.
That cannot be shunned; certain; inevitable.

The word "unavoidable" originated from the combination of two root words: "un-" and "avoidable".
The prefix "un-" is of Old English origin and originally meant "not" or "lack of". It is commonly used to express negation or inversion.
The root word "avoidable" comes from the verb "avoid", which is derived from the Old French word "esvuidier" meaning "empty out" or "clear out". The term "avoid" entered English during the 14th century, with the meaning of "shun" or "evade". Over time, "avoidable" developed as an adjective to describe something that can be prevented or kept away from.
By combining these two elements, "unavoidable" was formed in the English language.
