unexaggerated

/ˌʌnɛɡzˈædʒɚɹˌeɪɾᵻd/ adj

Not exaggerated; not an exaggeration.

Word Origin Exaggerate literally means 'to heap up' — from Latin ex- 'out' and agger 'heap'. So when you exaggerate, you pile on extra details. Unexaggerated means not heaped up, plain. The root agger also appears in belligerent? Actually belligerent is from bellum 'war' + gerere 'to carry', not directly. But exaggerate is related to agger, a mound.
