Etymology of UNMUZZLE

The word "unmuzzle" is composed of two elements: "un-" and "muzzle".

The prefix "un-" is a common morpheme in English, meaning "not" or "remove". It is derived from the Old English "un-" and the Proto-Germanic "un-".

The noun "muzzle" dates back to the late 14th century, and it refers to a device, typically made of metal or leather, placed over the mouth of an animal such as a dog to prevent it from biting. The origin of "muzzle" can be traced to the Middle French word "musel", which meant both "mask" and "snout". This Middle French term came from the Latin "musculus", meaning "snout" or "muzzle", which itself was derived from the Latin "muscus", translating to "mouse".
