Origin:
The word "unsophisticated" first emerged in the 17th century. It is a combination of the negative prefix "un-" and the past participle of "sophistry."
Sophistry:
By combining the negative prefix with the past participle of sophistry, "unsophisticated" literally means "not sophisticated by sophistry." This implies a lack of artificial complexity or deception, leading to the modern meaning of "simple" or "basic."
