unjacketed

/ʌndʒˈækɪɾᵻd/ adj

Not jacketed

Word Origin Unjacketed is un- + jacket + -ed. Jacket comes from Old French jacque, a peasant's short coat, possibly named after Jacques (a common peasant name). So a jacket is literally 'a little Jacques.' The word also gives us straitjacket. Unjacketed means without a jacket, or in publishing, a book without its dust jacket.
