Origin:
The word "tranquility" ultimately derives from the Proto-Indo-European root "trem-" or "tram-," meaning "to tremble" or "to shake." This root is also found in the Latin word "tremere," meaning "to tremble."
Over time, the meaning of "tranquility" evolved to refer to the opposite of trembling or agitation, thus denoting a state of calmness or serenity. This shift in meaning may have occurred due to the association between trembling and fear or anxiety, which are states that are incompatible with tranquility.
In the 14th century, the word "tranquility" entered the English language from French. It has since become a common term to describe a state of peacefulness, both physical and mental.
