Word origin
The word 'passably' originated from the Middle English word 'passement,' which means 'to be able to pass.' Over time, it evolved to 'passably' in the 16th century, with the meaning of 'adequately' or 'satisfactorily.' The usage of 'passably' has been consistent in the English language to describe moderate success or adequacy.
