Origin of the word perceptibly

The word "perceptibly" has its roots in Latin. It is derived from the Latin words "per" meaning "through" and "ceprint" meaning "to mark or cut". In the 15th century, the Latin phrase "perceptibilis" emerged, meaning "that which can be perceived" or "capable of being perceived". This phrase was later borrowed into Middle English as "perceptible", which referred to something that could be perceived or noticed. Over time, the suffix "-ly" was added to create the adverb "perceptibly", meaning "in a way that can be perceived" or "in a manner that is noticeable". Today, "perceptibly" is used to describe something that is observable, detectable, or noticeable, often in a subtle or incremental way.
