Etymology
The word 'dissimulated' comes from the Latin word 'dissimulare', which is formed by the prefix 'dis-' meaning 'apart' or 'away', and 'simulare', which means 'to feign' or 'to imitate'. This construction implies a sense of hiding one's true self or pretending to be something other than what one truly is. The first recorded use of the term in English dates back to the late Middle Ages, when it was adopted to discuss the concept of masquerading emotions and intentions, often in the context of politics and social interactions. Over the centuries, its usage evolved to encompass various aspects of human behavior and psychology, particularly in relation to deception and the complexities of interpersonal communication.
