Etymology of UNCOMMISERATED

The word uncommiserated is derived from the combination of the prefix un- meaning not or lack of and the verb commiserate.

The verb commiserate dates back to the mid-17th century and is derived from the Latin word commiseratus, the past participle of commiserari, which means to pity or to sympathize with. This Latin word is a combination of com- meaning together and miserari meaning to feel pity.

When the prefix un- is added to commiserate, it negates the meaning, resulting in uncommiserated. Therefore, uncommiserated means not pitied or not sympathized with.
