Etymology

Derived from Latin in- (not) + conspicuus (visible, striking), which combines con- (together) and specere (to look). The root spic- (from specere) evolved into English words like "spectacle" and "inspect." Over time, inconspicuous came to describe something deliberately unnoticeable, reflecting its literal meaning of "not easily seen."
