Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The word is formed from the native English negative prefix 'un-' (derived from Old English 'un-') combined with 'accepted', the past participle of 'accept'. 'Accept' itself entered Middle English in the 14th century from Old French 'accepter', originating from the Latin 'acceptare', a frequentative form of 'accipere' (to take to oneself).
