UNCAP
What uncap means
To remove a cap or cover from something, or to remove restrictions or limits that were previously imposed.
Where the word comes from
The verb "uncap" is a modern formation combining the prefix "un-" (meaning to reverse or remove) with the verb "cap" (to cover with a cap, or to put a limit on something). "Cap" itself comes from Old French "cape" and Latin "cappa," originally meaning a hooded cloak, later generalized to any covering. The prefix "un-" traces back to Old English and Proto-Germanic roots meaning "not" or "the reverse of."
