'talentless' originates from the word 'talent' combined with the suffix '-less', where 'talent' meant 'natural aptitude or skill' and '-less' indicates 'without'.

'talent' changed from the Old English word 'talente' and eventually became the modern English word 'talent'.

Initially, 'talent' meant 'a unit of weight or money', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'natural aptitude or skill'.
