Where does the word inexhaustible come from?

"Inexhaustible" traces its roots back to the Latin words "in" (not) and "exhaurire" (to draw out or empty). The word "exhaurire" itself is a combination of "ex" (out) and "haurire" (to draw or take). Thus, "inexhaustible" literally means "not able to be drawn out or emptied," referring to something that cannot be used up or depleted.
