Word Origin & Etymology

Borrowed in the 16th century from Late Latin impeccabilis ('not liable to sin'), formed from the privative prefix in- ('not') and peccare ('to sin or err'). Originally a theological term describing divine sinlessness, it broadened by the 18th century to mean free from any fault or blemish.
