Etymology

The word 'uncaringly' is derived from the word 'uncaring', which originated in the mid-17th century. The prefix 'un-' signifies a lack of caring or concern, while the adverbial suffix '-ly' transforms the adjective 'uncaring' into an adverb, indicating the manner in which something is done. The term reflects the idea of showing a lack of compassion, interest, or sympathy towards others.
