Root Explanation

Unremarked → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "remark" (from Old French *remarquer*, meaning to notice or observe). The word "unremarked" means not noticed or observed.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') noticing something ('remark') — that's why unremarked means something that goes unnoticed.
