Word origin
The word 'passively' is derived from the adjective 'passive', which comes from the Latin word 'passivus', meaning 'capable of suffering'. The term evolved over time to describe a state of non-resistance or inactivity. In the English language, 'passively' is commonly used to indicate a lack of active response or involvement.
