Root Explanation

Unbeing → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "being" (from Old English "beon", meaning to exist or to be). The word "unbeing" refers to the state of not existing or not being.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') combined with 'existing' ('being') — that's why unbeing means not existing.
