Word origin

The word 'untaxed' originated from the combination of the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not' and 'taxed,' the past participle of the verb 'tax.' It first appeared in the English language in the early 19th century. The concept of untaxed income or items has been present throughout history, with various societies implementing tax exemptions or privileges for certain individuals or goods. The term continues to be used in financial and legal contexts to describe entities or elements that are not subject to taxation.
