Etymology

The word 'unrewarding' is a combination of the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not' and the word 'rewarding', which comes from the Old French word 're- + warder' meaning 'to guard, protect, reward'. The term 'unrewarding' emerged in the late 19th century to describe situations or tasks that do not provide a sense of satisfaction or accomplishment.
