And the correct answer is un. The adjective unreliable means not trustworthy or not true. Synonyms include deceitful, deceptive, sham and undependable. Opposites include reliable, honest and responsible.

Those two little letters "un" placed at the beginning of a word are called a prefix and they change its meaning. The prefix "un" means not and it is used to create words such as unconstitutional, undelete and so on. The opposite of prefix, by the way, is suffix.
unzuverlässig, unseriös
