Etymology of MOST NONCANDESCENT

The term "most noncandescent" seems to be a combination of the words "non" and "incandescent".

The word "non" is a prefix derived from Latin "non" meaning "not" or "without". When added to a word, it negates or reverses its meaning.

The word "incandescent" comes from the Latin word "incandescentem", which is the present participle of "incandescens", meaning "glowing" or "becoming white-hot". In the context of light bulbs or lamps, "incandescent" refers to a type of light source that produces light as a result of being heated to a high temperature.
