not measured
Etymology
'non-measured' originates from English, combining the prefix 'non-' (from Latin 'non' meaning 'not') with 'measured', the past participle of 'measure'.
'measure' comes from Old French 'mesure' (from Latin 'mensura'), which developed into Middle English 'measure'; the past participle 'measured' was later combined with the negative prefix 'non-' to form 'non-measured'.
Initially, 'measure' referred to an act or standard of measuring; over time it came to mean the action of determining amount or extent, and 'non-measured' evolved to mean 'not measured' or 'not quantified'.
