Word of the Day – Immensurable

By June 18, 2023Word of the Day

Immensurable (adj)

i-men-sur-abl

Incapable of being measured; limitless.

Immensurable is easily confused with immeasurable, and the resemblance is no coincidence. Both come from Late Latin mēnsūrābilis, “that can be measured,” from earlier Latin mētīrī, “to measure.”

Example sentences

“Without the use of sonar to detect distance, the furthest depths of the ocean would still seem immensurable to scientists today.”
