Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the adjective unusable, combining the prefix un- (denoting negation or reversal, from Old English un-) with usable, which stems from the verb use (from Old French user, Latin uti). The adverbial suffix -ly derives from Old English -līce, transforming the base adjective into a manner or degree descriptor denoting a state unfit for utilization.
