# unlabelled

adjective (unlabelled; US unlabeled)

«unlabelled» in the English dictionary: everyday — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## Everyday

1. Without a label: an unlabelled jar or bottle. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/U/unlabelled/#m1)
2. Not named or marked, like an unlabelled diagram. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/school/U/unlabelled/#m2)

### In the lessons

A science, safety and maths word. In science lessons, always label diagrams and axes; an unlabelled graph loses marks. Safety: never drink or taste anything from an unlabelled bottle — it could be poison or bleach. In Alice in Wonderland Alice drinks from a bottle only after checking it is not marked «poison» — it was labelled «DRINK ME».

### Examples

### Note

British spelling «unlabelled» (double l); American «unlabeled». In maths and science, unlabelled axes make a graph impossible to read.
