Inefável
Incapable of being expressed in words; indescribable;
unspeakable; not to be uttered; taboo
From Latin 'ineffabilis', which joins the prefix 'in-', meaning not, with the adjective 'effabilis', meaning capable of being expressed.
'Effabilis' comes from 'effari' ('to speak out'), which in turn comes from 'ex-' and 'fari' ('to speak').
