Have you seen my paper on the project?

No, I haven't. Is it still unreviewed?

Root Explanation

Unreviewed → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "review" (from Old French *reviser*, meaning to look over again). The word "unreviewed" means not looked over again or not examined.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') having something 'looked over again' ('review') — that's why unreviewed means it hasn't been examined.
