Word origin

The word 'articulable' is derived from the Latin word 'articulabilis', which means 'able to be jointed or connected'. The term has been used in English since the 17th century, originally in the context of anatomy to describe joints and movement. Over time, it has also come to be used in communication to describe the ability to express ideas clearly and effectively.
