Word origin

The word 'impassably' is derived from the adjective 'impassable', which originates from the Latin root 'impassabilis'. The Latin term combines the prefix 'in-', meaning 'not', and 'passabilis', which means 'able to be passed'. The concept evolved in English to describe something that cannot be passed over or through. It has been used in English texts since at least the 17th century, becoming more prevalent in descriptions of obstacles in both natural and manmade environments. Today, 'impassably' is commonly used to convey the severity of obstructions, especially in contexts related to travel and mobility.
