'timeless' originates from the English word 'time' combined with the suffix '-less', where 'time' meant 'a period' and '-less' meant 'without'.

'timeless' changed from the Old English word 'tīma' meaning 'time' and eventually became the modern English word 'timeless'.

Initially, it meant 'without time', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'not affected by time'.
