The word "unscared" is derived from the combination of the prefix "un-" and the adjective "scared".
The prefix "un-" is of Old English origin and it primarily functions as a negative or opposite prefix, indicating the absence or reversal of a quality. It is similar to other negating prefixes such as "in-" and "non-".
The word "scared" is derived from the verb "scare", which originated from Old Norse and Middle Dutch roots. It originally meant "to scare or frighten".
When "un-" is added to "scared", it negates the meaning, creating the word "unscared", which implies the absence of fear or the state of being unafraid.
