unexecuted

/ˌʌnˈɛksᵻkjˌuɾᵻd/ adj

Not executed; not performed or carried out.

Word Origin Built from Latin 'ex' (out) and 'sequi' (to follow) — literally 'follow out' to completion. The idea: to execute something is to carry it out fully, but 'unexecuted' slaps on the Old English 'un-' (not) to say it never got done. The same root 'sequi' gives us 'sequence' (things that follow), 'consequence' (what follows with), and 'pursue' (follow forward).
