Word origin
The word 'unchanging' originated from the combination of the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not' and the gerund form of the verb 'change'. It has been used in the English language to describe the concept of remaining the same or not able to change since the 16th century. The idea of something being unchanging has been a common theme in philosophical and scientific discussions, reflecting the human desire for stability and consistency in a world of constant flux.
