Did you hear about that undiscovered cave they found last week?

Yeah, it sounds amazing! I wonder what's inside.

I bet there are so many treasures and artifacts undiscovered by anyone before.

Totally! We should plan a trip to explore it once it's open to the public.

Root Explanation

Undiscovered → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "discovered" (from Latin "discooperire", meaning to uncover or reveal). The word "undiscovered" means not uncovered or not revealed, referring to something that has not yet been found or known.

Memory Tip

Think of something that is 'not' ('un-') 'uncovered' or 'revealed' ('discovered') — that's why undiscovered means something that hasn't been found yet.
