Root Explanation

Unjaded → It is formed from the prefix "un-" (meaning not) and the root "jaded" (from the Old English *jade*, meaning to tire or wear out). The word "unjaded" means not tired or worn out, suggesting a state of freshness or enthusiasm.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') being added to 'tired' ('jaded') — that's why unjaded means not feeling tired or worn out.
