Etymology
The word 'inclined' originated from the Latin word 'inclฤซnฤre', which means 'to bend or lean'. Over time, the word evolved in Middle English to 'enclinen' and finally became 'inclined' in modern English. The dual meaning of having a preference and sloping or slanting has been in use since the late Middle English period.
