"Reprobate" comes from Latin reprobare, meaning "to reject or condemn," and entered English in the late 14th century, originally in religious contexts to describe someone morally rejected by God. Over time, it came to refer more broadly to an individual who lacks morality and principle, especially someone persistently wicked or unrepentant. The term appears in literature, religious writing, and moral commentary rather than everyday speech. It is clearly derogatory, formal in tone, and used to express strong moral condemnation rather than casual insult.

What is the origin of the term "reprobate" and how is it used?
