Origin of the word liveable

The word "liveable" has its roots in the 14th century Old French word "viable", which means "capable of living". This word is derived from the Latin "vita", meaning "life". The English word "liveable" emerged in the 15th century as the equivalent of "viable" and initially meant "capable of living" or "sufficient for life". Over time, the meaning shifted to describe a place or environment that is pleasant, suitable, and comfortable for human habitation, free from severe hardships or discomfort. Today, "liveable" is often used to describe a city, neighborhood, or community that offers a high quality of life, with adequate resources, amenities, and conditions for its residents to thrive.
