Origin and Evolution of inexcusably

First Known Use: 1601 year

Language of Origin: Latin

Story behind the word: The word 'inexcusably' originated from the Latin word 'excusare' which means 'to make an excuse for' or 'to apologize for'. The prefix 'in-' was added to create the opposite meaning of 'without excuse'.

Evolution of the word: Over time, 'inexcusably' has retained its original meaning of 'without excuse' but has also come to imply a sense of moral or ethical wrongdoing. It is commonly used to describe actions or behavior that are deemed unjustifiable or unforgivable.
