Surface Forms

unsorry positive

Morphology

unsorry = sorry (semi-transparent) = un + sorry

Formally 'un-' + 'sorry' is clear, but the sense 'not deserving of pity' is a shifted or relational meaning not directly the simple negation 'not feeling regret'.

Etymology

Unsorry is made from un- meaning 'not' and sorry, which once meant 'sore' or 'in pain'. So someone called unsorry in this sense is 'not deserving of pity' because they do not inspire sadness or sympathy.
