The spelling of the word "more unscared" might seem confusing at first, but it follows the rules of English phonetics. The first syllable, "more," is pronounced using the long "o" sound (/mɔː/), while the second syllable, "unscared," is pronounced with a short "u" sound (/ʌn/skɛəd/). The prefix "un-" indicates the opposite of "scared," and the ending "-ed" indicates the past tense. Together, the word means "even less afraid," and its spelling reflects the sounds of its individual parts.
The phrase "more unscared" is not a distinct word or phrase with its own etymology. "More" and "unscared" are two separate words, and their individual etymologies are as follows:
1. More: The word "more" originated from the Old English word "māra", which means "greater" or "larger". It has germanic roots and is related to Old High German "mēr" and Old Norse "meiri".
2. Unscared: The word "unscared" is derived from two components: "un-" meaning "not" or "without", and "scared" meaning "frightened" or "afraid". The root word "scared" comes from late Middle English and Middle Dutch "scharen", meaning "frighten" or "repel".
