unset
unset is a builtin Unix shell command implemented by both the Bourne shell family of shells and the C shell family of shells. It unsets a shell variable, removing it from memory and the shell's exported environment. It is implemented as a shell builtin, because it directly manipulates the internals of the shell. Read-only shell variables cannot be unset. If one tries to unset a read-only variable, the unset command will print an error message and return a non-zero exit code.
Chambers 20th Century Dictionary
Unset
un-set′, adj. not set or placed: unplanted: not mounted or placed in a setting: not set, as a broken limb.
