Etymology
'ageless' originates from the English word 'age' combined with the suffix '-less', where 'age' meant 'the length of time that a person has lived or a thing has existed' and '-less' meant 'without'.
'age' combined with the suffix '-less' in Middle English to form 'ageless', eventually becoming the modern English word 'ageless'.
Initially, it meant 'without age', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'not growing old or showing the effects of age'.
