Word origin
The word 'unroll' originated from the combination of 'un-' meaning 'not' and 'roll' meaning 'to move by turning over and over'. It has been used in English since the 15th century to describe the action of unfolding or spreading out something that was rolled up. In recent years, with the rise of social media platforms like Twitter, 'unroll' has also taken on a new meaning in the context of posting a series of tweets as a threaded conversation.
