'irresolvability' originates from the Latin word 'irresolubilis,' where 'in-' meant 'not' and 'resolubilis' meant 'capable of being loosened or solved.'

'irresolubilis' transformed into the Old French word 'irresoluble,' and eventually became the modern English word 'irresolvable' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'not capable of being solved,' and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
