Etymology
The word 'unfeigned' comes from the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not' and the adjective 'feigned,' which is derived from the Old French word 'feindre', meaning 'to feign or pretend,' which itself comes from the Latin 'fingere,' meaning 'to shape, form, or invent.' The root of 'feign' suggests an act of deception or pretense, thus by adding the prefix 'un-', 'unfeigned' negates that concept. The usage of 'unfeigned' can be traced back to the 17th century in English literature, where it was used to emphasize authenticity in emotional expression. Over the years, it has been applied in various contexts, including literature, speech, and personal interactions, highlighting the importance of sincerity in human relationships and communication.
