    - Those aren't definitions; they are poorly written blogs. - TFox Jul 8, 16:45 1
      - The proper word seems to be untold, which is descended from the Old English via Middle English. The original word was unteald meanind not counted. - the liioulu with fabric flowers and real cake Jul 8, 16:53
