differencemeaning

Could anyone please tell me what's the difference in meaning between the words 'shameless' and 'unashamed'?

Best Answer

unashamed is the negative of ashamed meaning not feeling shame, embarassment, etc.

shameless means not having any sense of shame, modesty, etc.

So you could be ashamed or (the opposite) unashamed, but if you are shameless you do not care about embarrassment, shame, modesty etc.
