"Unavailable" is a relatively modern word, originating from the combination of the prefix "un-" (meaning "not") and the adjective "available." "Available" itself comes from the Old French "avalable," meaning "capable of being used or obtained." The first recorded use of "unavailable" dates back to the early 19th century. Its rise in popularity was likely driven by the increasing complexity of modern society, requiring greater precision in describing things that were not readily accessible.
