In English, the phrase en clair is used to describe unencrypted messages, as borrowed from the French.
From the Lancaster University site:
En clair is a French phrase that translates to in clear, and is used to describe transmitting a message without encrypting it first. In other words, you would say, “Send this message en clair“. By that you would mean, “Send this message in clear (or cleartext)”. By contrast you could say “Send this message en chiffre“, meaning “Send this message in cipher (or encoded or encrypted)”.

Ok so the opposite of "encrypted" is also "clear", thank you

@TheDevKiller Yes, you could say "Send this message unencrypted" instead of "Send this message en clair".
