Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Late Middle English word 'impregnable', stemming from Old French 'impregnable', based on the Latin prefix 'in-' (not) combined with 'praegnare' (to be pregnant, full). Over time, the meaning evolved from 'unable to become pregnant' to its modern figurative and literal sense of being unable to be captured, broken into, or overcome.
