Etymology

The word 'springiness' is derived from the noun 'spring', which originally referred to a coiled or arch-shaped mechanical device that can return to its original shape after being compressed or stretched. Over time, the term 'springiness' evolved to describe the quality of this mechanical property, as well as the metaphorical resilience and vitality associated with bouncing back from challenges or setbacks.
