Raw

Raw describes something in its natural, unprocessed, or uncooked state, such as raw meat or raw materials. It can also describe emotions that feel very strong and painful, or skin that is sore and red.

It comes from Old English “hrēaw,” meaning “uncooked,” from Proto-Germanic “*khraiwaz.” The figurative senses of “untrained,” “emotional,” or “sore” developed later from the idea of something not yet protected or finished.
