Root Explanation

Unredressed → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "redress" (from Old French *redresser*, meaning to set right or correct). The word "unredressed" means not set right or not corrected.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') correcting something ('redress') — that's why unredressed means something that has not been made right.
