Etymology of UNBENT

The word "unbent" is derived from Middle English "unbende", which itself comes from Old English "unbendan".

The Old English word "unbendan" combines the prefix "un-" (meaning "not" or "reversing") with the verb "bendan" (to bend, curve, or flex). The verb "bendan" traces back to the Proto-Germanic word "*bandijaną", which shares a common ancestor with the Old Norse "benda" and the Old High German "bendon".

Overall, the etymology of "unbent" can be traced back to the ancient Germanic roots that give the concept of reversing or straightening the state of bending, reflecting its meaning in English today.
