Word origin
The word 'unasked' originated from the combination of the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not' and the past participle of the verb 'ask.' It first appeared in the English language in the late 16th century, evolving from Middle English and Old English roots. Over time, 'unasked' has maintained its core meaning of 'not requested or invited,' continuing to be used in various contexts to emphasize the lack of invitation or desire.
