Conversation

I was reading this article, and honestly, some parts felt really uncomprehended by me.

I get that! Sometimes, the language is just too complex.

Right? It makes me feel a bit dumb when I can't grasp it.

Don't worry about it; we all have topics that leave us feeling uncomprehended!

Root Explanation

Uncomprehended → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "comprehendere" (meaning to grasp or understand). The word "uncomprehended" means not grasped or understood.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') being added to 'grasp' or 'understand' ('comprehendere') — that's why uncomprehended means something that is not understood.
