Have you ever explored that unvisited island nearby?

I think it would be fun to check it out since it's so unvisited.

Root Explanation

Unvisited → It is formed from "un-" (meaning not) and "visited" (from Latin "visitare", meaning to go to see or call upon). The word "unvisited" means not having been visited or not having received visitors.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('un-') having been 'called upon' or 'seen' ('visitare') — that's why unvisited means it hasn't been visited.
