The Latin word incertus is a compound of in- "not" and certus "certain, sure." The prefix in- negates the meaning of the root word, indicating that something is "not certain."
The word incertitude emerged in the 14th century to describe the state of being uncertain. It has been used in various contexts throughout history, both in philosophy and in everyday language, to convey the idea of doubt, hesitation, and lack of confidence.
