I love how this park feels so unfenced and open.

Root Explanation

Unfenced → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "fenced" (from Old French *fencier*, meaning to enclose or defend). The word "unfenced" means not enclosed or defended by a fence.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') having a 'fence' around it — that's why unfenced means there is no fence enclosing something.
