Origin of the word indelible

The word "indelible" originated from the Latin word "delere," which means "to erase" or "rub out." The prefix "in-" in "indelible" is a Latin word meaning "not" or "without." Hence, the word "indelible" translates to "not erasable" or "unable to be erased." It is widely used to refer to something that cannot be removed, obliterated, or forgotten, such as indelible ink used in pens or stamps, a memory that cannot be forgotten, or a mark left behind by a lasting impression. The word became popular during the 17th century when it first appeared in English, initially as "indeletable." Over time, its usage evolved as people started using it more frequently to indicate a permanent and significant quality in various contexts.
