| Apr 19, 2022 at 16:46 | comment | added | Tuffy | What you are asking for reminds me of the words in the song "Rocks in my bed" (I think written for Duke Ellington by Harvey G Cohen) most famously sung by the great blues singer, Bessie Smith: "Underloved, overfed,/ my man's so instead / I've got rocks in my bed." | |
| Apr 19, 2022 at 14:50 | comment | added | Darrel Hoffman | It's not a single word, and it's a noun rather than an adjective, but the term Hidden gem might describe what you're thinking of. | |
| Apr 19, 2022 at 14:12 | comment | added | Marthaª | @user3840170, the meanings of sub-parts of a word are about as relevant as its etymology, which is to say, not at all. A word means what people use it to mean, nothing more, nothing less. | |

| Apr 19, 2022 at 8:04 | comment | added | user3840170 | @Marthaª What do you think the ‘rating’ refers to in ‘underrated’? | |

| Apr 18, 2022 at 19:50 | comment | added | Marthaª | Can you elaborate on why you think "underrated" means "not liked enough"? It doesn't mean that, but if you explain why you think it does, and why it's not the word you're looking for, we may have a better chance of helping you. | |

| Apr 18, 2022 at 13:11 | comment | added | Greg Burghardt | The last part of the last sentence in your question -- "more people should know about it" -- actually makes me think underrated is the word you want. | |
| Apr 18, 2022 at 13:08 | comment | added | Greg Burghardt | Can you edit your question with an example of how you want to use this word? | |
