Etymology

The term 'fragile' comes from the Latin word 'fragilis', which translates to 'easily broken'. This Latin root is derived from 'frangere', meaning 'to break'. The word evolved through Old French before entering the English language in the late 15th century. Over the centuries, it has been used not only to describe physical items, such as glass and porcelain, but also metaphorically for concepts and emotions, conveying vulnerability or sensitivity. The use of 'fragile' in different contexts has expanded, including modern applications in psychology and literature to indicate a delicate state of mind or situation.
