The answer
UNCUT
What uncut means
Not trimmed, shortened, or edited from an original version, such as a film, gem, or piece of material in its full or natural state.
Where the word comes from
"Uncut" is a straightforward combination of the prefix "un-" (meaning "not") and the verb "cut." The word "cut" comes from Middle English "cutten," likely borrowed from Old Norse "kúta." The prefix "un-" descends from Old English and ultimately from Proto-Germanic, meaning negation or reversal. Together, they form a compound meaning "not cut" or "in its original unedited state."
