Etymology

From non- + inherited.

Meanings

  1. (not-comparable) Not inherited; not passed from parent to offspring.
    • The language-internal analysis of possibly non-inherited features does not immediately shed light on the linguistic affiliations of any pre-Roman language in Sarrdinia, but it does allow us to differentiate between what should and what should not be compared. 2025, Cid Swanenvleugel, The Pre-Roman Elements of the Sardinian Lexicon, page 8:
    • a noninherited maternal antigen
  2. (not-comparable) Not derived from a superclass through inheritance.
