uncomforted

/ʌŋkˈʌmfɚɾᵻd/ adj

Not comforted.

Word Origin Comfort comes from Latin con- 'together' + fortis 'strong' — so comfort is literally 'strengthen together,' to give strength. Uncomforted means not given that strength, not consoled. The root fortis gives us fortify, fortress, enforce, and reinforce. The breakdown un+comfort+ed shows the negation of the past participle: not having been comforted.
