Explanation: This word is an adjective meaning 'unspeakable,' 'inexpressible,' or 'indescribable.' It is a compound word formed from the alpha privative (ἀ-) meaning 'not' or 'un-', and the word διηγητός (diegetos), meaning 'narratable' or 'explainable.' Therefore, it literally means 'not explainable' or 'not narratable.' It is used to describe things that are so profound, immense, or overwhelming that they cannot be adequately put into words.
