unverified

Meanings

1. 1
   adj

   not yet checked or confirmed as accurate, authentic, or true

   The unverified hypothesis should guide further inquiry rather than be treated as certain.

Formed from un- ("not") + verified, the past participle of verify. Unlike unverifiable, it usually means that verification has not yet occurred, not that verification is impossible.
