invisibility
UK: ɪnˌvɪzəˈbɪləti | US: ɪnˌvɪzəˈbɪləti
n. the state or quality of being impossible to see
n. the ability to avoid being noticed or observed
The word "invisibility" traces back to Latin roots. The prefix "in-" (meaning "not") negates the root "vis" (from Latin "videre," meaning "to see"). The suffix "-ibility" (a variant of "-ability") transforms the adjective "invisible" into a noun denoting the quality of being unseen. This logical construction reflects the word's evolution from Latin "invisibilitas" through Old French to modern English, preserving its core meaning of "unseeableness."
