Origin:
The word "unflinching" originated in the 14th century in Middle English. It initially meant "not being afraid" or "not shrinking from danger." The prefix "un-" negates the verb "flincen," which comes from the Old English word "flincan," meaning "to move suddenly."
Over time, "unflinching" has come to refer more broadly to the quality of firmness or steadfastness in the face of adversity. It is often used to describe people who are courageous or determined, or who have an unwavering sense of purpose or resolve.
