Not intimidated or discouraged by something difficult or dangerous; continuing with courage despite challenges.
From prefix 'un-' (not) plus 'daunted,' from Old French 'danter' meaning to tame or intimidate. The word emerged in English around the 1600s.
The word 'daunt' comes from the same root as 'tame'—when someone is 'daunted,' they're like a wild horse that's been tamed into submission, so 'undaunted' means they remain unbroken by fear!
