unk unk
n.— «There is an old Navy term for the truly imponderable: UNK-UNK for unknown-unknown. Of the ten men Mr. Reagan has nominated so far, Mr. Donovan stands out as the “UNK-UNK” of the team. This is not to say that he cannot do a good job—only that he lacks evident qualifications.» —“The Vague General Haig” New York Times Dec. 17, 1980. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
