Learner notes
Memory Tip
联想：un（不）+support（支撑）+ed，像悬空木板没有支柱——既指物理无支撑，也指说法无证据。
Context & Register
语域：mixed 常见场景：日常或技术描述、学术或正式写作 unsupported 可表示“无物理支撑的”或“得不到支持的”，较中性；也可表示“未经证实的”（如 unsupported claim），较正式，多用于学术或书面批评。使用时可根据搭配词判断具体含义。
Pronunciation & Spelling
注意：以 -orted 结尾的词（supported、reported、distorted、sorted、aborted）与 unsupported 押韵，发音中都含 /ɔːtɪd/。但 unsurpassed 虽也以 un- 开头，却读作 /ˌʌnsəˈpɑːst/，与它并不押韵，拼写和含义也完全不同，需注意区分。
