Etymology of INVERECUND

The word "inverecund" is derived from the Latin term "inverecundus". "Inverecundus" is composed of two Latin elements – "in", which is a prefix meaning "not", and "verecundus", meaning "shy" or "modest". When combined, "inverecundus" translates to "not modest" or "not shy". Over time, the word evolved into "inverecund" in English, retaining its meaning of lacking modesty or not being shy.
