Etymology
The word 'inexplicability' is derived from the combination of 'in-' meaning 'not' and 'explicable' meaning 'able to be explained'. It first appeared in the English language in the mid-19th century. The concept of inexplicability has been a subject of philosophical inquiry, as it deals with the limits of human understanding and the mysteries of the universe.
