Word origin

The word 'unbreakably' is formed by the prefix 'un-', meaning 'not', and the word 'breakable', which originates from the verb 'break', derived from Old English 'brecan' meaning 'to shatter, break, or disrupt'. The combination of 'un-' with 'breakable' gives the term a meaning of impossibility of being broken. This formation reflects the development in the English language to describe extremes of ability or condition. The use of 'unbreakable' in commercial language increased during the 20th century as industries sought to emphasize the strength of their products, particularly in sectors like telecommunications, construction, and consumer goods. Over time, 'unbreakably' has also evolved to describe not just physical objects but metaphorically strong characteristics such as resilience in the face of adversity.
