Etymology: "Unflip" is a plain formation: the reversing prefix "un-" attached to "flip." Its meaning is simply to undo a flip, to turn back something that has been flipped over, such as a coin, a card, or a switch that has been flipped to its other position. The prefix "un-" is one of English's most productive, able to attach to many verbs to reverse their action, and "unflip" follows that pattern directly.
