Word origin
The word 'vague' originated from the Latin word 'vagus', meaning 'wandering' or 'unsettled'. It entered the English language in the late 16th century. Over time, 'vague' has evolved to describe things that are uncertain, unclear, or not explicitly defined. Its usage has been consistent in describing things that lack specificity or clarity.
