👉 In linguistics, "unbenignness" is a term used to describe an object or entity that appears benign or innocuous in appearance but is actually harmful or malicious. It can be used to describe any object or person that appears innocent or harmless at first glance, but later reveals itself to be malicious or harmful. Examples of unbenign objects include plants, animals, and even some people who appear innocent on the surface, but are actually dangerous or destructive.
