Etymology:
Meaning:
Exorbitant means "exceeding reasonable limits or bounds" or "outrageously high or excessive."
Origin:
The word "exorbitant" was first used in English in the late 16th century. It was derived from the Latin phrase "ex orbe," which means "out of the circle" or "beyond the normal bounds." This phrase was used figuratively to refer to something that was excessive or unreasonable.
Over time, the word "exorbitant" came to be used in a more general sense to refer to something that is outrageously high or excessive. It is often used to describe prices, demands, or behaviors that are considered to be unreasonable or unfair.
