Root Explanation

Unambivalent → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "ambivalent" (from Latin "ambivalens", meaning having mixed feelings). The word "unambivalent" means not having mixed feelings or being clear in one's feelings or attitudes.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') having 'mixed feelings' ('ambivalent') — that's why unambivalent means being clear and decisive.
