Word origin

The word 'uncoordinated' is derived from the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not' and the word 'coordinated'. The term originated in the mid-19th century, combining the prefix 'un-' with 'coordinated' to describe a lack of coordination or organization. Over time, 'uncoordinated' has been used to describe both physical and non-physical aspects of lacking coordination or organization.
