Root Explanation

Unspiritual → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "spiritual" (from Latin "spiritualis", meaning relating to the spirit). The word "unspiritual" means not relating to the spirit or lacking spiritual qualities.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') relating to the 'spirit' ('spiritual') — that's why unspiritual means lacking spiritual qualities.
