Origin:
The word "profuse" originates from the Latin verb "profundere," which means "to pour out" or "to expend freely." The Latin verb is derived from the Proto-Indo-European root "*pr̥w-," which also gives rise to words such as "precipitation" and "prodigious."
The original meaning of "profuse" was "to pour out freely" or "to expend without restraint." Over time, it has come to mean more generally "copious" or "abundant," as well as "excessive" or "extravagant."
