Etymology

The word 'inelegance' has its roots in the Latin word 'inelegantia', which means 'want of elegance'. It entered the English language in the mid-17th century. The concept of elegance has long been valued in society, and thus the opposite term, inelegance, emerged to describe the lack of grace or refinement. Over time, it has become a common term used to denote a lack of elegance in various aspects of life.
