Untrustworthy

/ʌnˈtrʌstwɜːðɪ/ adjective

Definition

Someone or something that cannot be relied on or believed; likely to deceive or disappoint.

Etymology

English prefix 'un-' (meaning 'not') + 'trustworthy.' Trustworthy comes from 'trust' (Middle English, from Old Norse 'traust') + '-worthy' (Old English 'weorthe,' meaning 'worthy').

Kelly Says

Research shows people decide whether someone is trustworthy in just 100 milliseconds—mostly based on facial features and tone of voice, not actual behavior, which is why our gut feelings about untrustworthy people are often wrong.
