Usage Examples

Etymology

French **limpide** (normally an adjective, but used as a noun meaning “clear, lucid” water) comes from Latin *limpidus* “clear, translucent.” *Limpidus* is derived from the Latin verb *limo* “to wash, cleanse,” indicating a state of being free from cloudiness. It entered Old French in the 13th century as *limpide*, preserving its original sense of transparent water and later applied figuratively to anything unclouded.
