How Evaluated
Surface Forms
Morphology
unevaluated = evaluated (transparent) = un + evaluate + ed
The word is formed by adding the productive prefix 'un-' to the participial adjective 'evaluated', yielding the predictable meaning 'not assessed'.
Etymology
Unevaluated is formed from un- meaning 'not' and evaluate, which comes from the Latin root valere meaning 'to be worth' and is the same idea as the common word value. So, unevaluated describes something 'not yet given a value or judgment', which is why we use it for things not yet checked or measured.
