unhung
Still without hooks
Unhung describes something not yet hung or no longer hanging.
A painting may sit unhung in the closet; a door awaits installation unhung in the garage.
In historical contexts, unhung describes someone who escaped hanging: The scoundrel died unhung.
Informally, unhung describes a man with a small penis—the opposite of well-hung.
