Hello,
I am not a native English speaker but good in English.
However, I got this term in an email and wonder what is its meaning.
I tried webster & other dictionaries but didn't find what it means.
the word is "unsolicited" , it was like this "unsolicited proposals".
Can you describe the meaning in a plain English.

unsolicited means not requested
so in your example it means the proposals were not requested

It means you did not ask for it.
In this case " Unsolicited Proposal" an unwanted suggestion

an unsolicited proposal is one which has not been requested.
If you send a proposal to a company, and they didn't ask you to, or it wasn't previously arranged, it's unsolicited.

unsolicited - did not asked for.
unsolicited proposals - proposals that you did not asked for, but getting them anyway

It means someone is giving you something that you didn't ask for.
