'Unexpired' means still valid or in effect; not having come to an end. It's like having a driver's license 🚘 that's good for another two years, or a gift card 🎁 that you can still use. It signifies that a period of validity remains. Unlike something that's expired, an unexpired item is still usable or acceptable. To possess something unexpired means that all privileges associated with that item are still active.
'Unexpired' is formed by adding 'un-' (not) to 'expired.' 'Expired' comes from the Latin word 'exspirare,' meaning 'to breathe out, exhale, come to an end.' Therefore, 'unexpired' literally means 'not come to an end,' indicating that the validity period is still ongoing.
You're at the airport ✈️, and the check-in agent asks for your passport. You hand it over, slightly nervous. The agent checks, smiles, and says, 'Your passport is unexpired, you're all set!' Relief washes over you as you proceed through security.
