Definition of undefined

The word "unhappiness" is a combination of the prefix "un-" meaning "not" and the noun "happiness." "Happiness" itself has a long history, stemming from the Old English "hæp" meaning "good luck, fortune," and "happ" meaning "chance." The first recorded use of "unhappiness" was in the 14th century. It simply meant the opposite of "happiness," signifying a state of lacking good fortune or contentment. As the concept of personal well-being developed, "unhappiness" came to encompass feelings of sadness, dissatisfaction, and despair.
