Root Explanation

Unreasoned → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "reason" (from Latin "ratio", meaning reason or judgment) and "-ed" (a suffix indicating the past participle). The word "unreasoned" means not based on reason or lacking rational thought.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') having a 'reason' — that's why unreasoned means something that lacks reasoning.
