Root Explanation

Unprejudiced → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "prejudice" (from Latin "praejudicium", meaning a judgment made beforehand). The word "unprejudiced" means not having a judgment made beforehand, implying fairness and impartiality.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') having a 'judgment made beforehand' ('prejudice') — that's why unprejudiced means being fair and open-minded.
