Word origin

The word 'unprobed' is a combination of the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not' and the verb 'probe' which comes from Latin 'probare' meaning 'to test or examine.' The term 'unprobed' started being used in the mid-20th century in the context of scientific research to describe data or hypotheses that have not yet been examined or investigated.
