'seedless' originates from the English word 'seed' combined with the suffix '-less,' where 'seed' meant 'the unit of reproduction of a flowering plant' and '-less' meant 'without.'

'seed' combined with the suffix '-less' in Middle English to form 'seedless,' which has retained its meaning in modern English.

Initially, it meant 'without seeds,' and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
