I read a fascinating article about some unchronicled events in history.

Really? That sounds interesting! What were they about?

Synonyms & Antonyms

Root Explanation

Unchronicled → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "chronicled" (from Latin "chronicus", meaning relating to time, and Greek "khronikos", meaning of time). The word "unchronicled" means not recorded in a chronological account or history.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') being added to 'recorded in time' ('chronicled') — that's why unchronicled means something that hasn't been recorded in history.
