Intemerate adj. Chaste, pure, undefiled.

"Intemerate" is a rare and somewhat archaic adjective derived from the Latin intemeratus, meaning "untarnished," "pure," or "undefiled." It is used to describe something that remains unspoiled, uncorrupted, or free from blemish. The word conveys a sense of absolute purity, often in a moral or spiritual sense, though it can also be used more generally to refer to something that is flawless or without imperfection.

Historically, "intemerate" has been used to describe individuals or qualities that are considered wholly virtuous or untainted, such as a saint or a pristine natural landscape. While not commonly used in modern language, it still carries a sense of reverence for something that is untouched by time, corruption, or sin.
