Word origin
The word 'insensible' originated from the Latin word 'insensibilis', which means 'unfeeling'. It first appeared in English in the late 14th century. Over time, its usage evolved to describe both physical and emotional lack of sensitivity. The word has been commonly used in literature and formal writing to depict characters or situations devoid of feeling or awareness.
