Etymology
The word 'sensibility' originated in the late 18th century from the Latin word 'sensibilitas', meaning 'capacity for sensation or feeling'. It was first used in English to describe the ability to perceive and respond to emotions or external stimuli. Over time, the term evolved to encompass a broader range of meanings, including emotional intelligence and aesthetic appreciation.
