Root Explanation

Unflagging → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "flagging" (from the verb "flag" meaning to weaken or become tired). The word "unflagging" means not weakening or not becoming tired, indicating persistent effort or energy.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') becoming 'weakened' ('flagging') — that's why unflagging means to keep going without getting tired.
