Unsubtly is a very odd derivative of unsubtle to teach anyway - I can't find it in my large Collins dictionary or in any online dictionary either.

Thanks everyone for your answers - especially 'bookbinder!!!' My son can now complete his homework.
cas42 ...I think you mean some-one else has now completed his homework !
Interesting situation. To find an answer in the good old days one would reference a book. These days presumably it is ok to reference the internet, or more specifically a relevant website (in this case this one) on the internet. I'm not sure if what Cas42 and her son have done here is unacceptable....I don't think it is.

My jaw hung slackly when I realised.

Thanks for your comments, especially Prudie. My son had never heard of these words and could not find them in any reference books or dictionaries. To be honest I did not know how to use them in a sentence, hence the reason I used The AnswerBank. We did not use the exact sentences but changed them to suit my son.
