ungenerated

Ungenerated is an adjective used to describe something that has not been produced or created by a generation process. In everyday English, the term is uncommon; speakers typically say not generated or unproduced. It appears mainly in technical writing or contexts where generation denotes an explicit production step within a system or workflow.

Etymology: The word is formed from the negating prefix un- and the past participle generated, from generate. It follows standard English morphology, though it is not widely attested in dictionaries.

Usage: In computing and data science, ungenerated data or outputs refer to items that were not produced by a generator component. In software testing, a case may be described as ungenerated when content was expected but not created. In natural language processing, an ungenerated response denotes a failure or constraint that prevented generation.

Related terms: non-generated, not generated, unproduced. Ungenerated is considered technical or jargon and may be unclear outside its domain. When precision is required, writers will use phrases such as not generated by the system or unproduced content.
