Where does the word unchanged come from?

"Unchanged" is a combination of the prefix "un-" and the past participle "changed". "Un-" is a negative prefix meaning "not" or "the opposite of". It's been part of English since Old English, derived from the Proto-Germanic "*un-". "Changed" comes from the verb "change", which comes from the Old French "changer". This itself stems from the Latin "cambiare", meaning "to exchange". Therefore, "unchanged" literally means "not changed" or "remaining the same".
