Root Explanation

Unrestricted → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "restricted" (from Latin "restrictus", meaning to draw back or limit). The word "unrestricted" means not limited or drawn back, indicating freedom or openness.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') limiting or 'drawing back' ('restrictus') — that's why unrestricted means free from limits.
