Etymology

The word 'unappealingly' is derived from the verb 'appeal,' which comes from Old French 'apeler' and Latin 'appellare,' meaning 'to address, accost, entreat.' The prefix 'un-' is added to form the negative, indicating the opposite of appealing. The adverb 'unappealingly' has been in use since the late 19th century.
