Origin:
The word "implausible" is derived from the Latin word "implausibilis," which means "not applaudable." This is because, in ancient Rome, plays that were not well-received by the audience would be met with silence or disapproval, rather than applause. Thus, a play that was "implausible" was one that was not likely to be well-received and therefore not worthy of applause.
Over time, the meaning of "implausible" has evolved to include anything that is not believable or credible. This can include statements, arguments, or events that seem unlikely or impossible to be true.
