Meaning
Insouciane is a feeling of careless indifference. It is a lack of concern shown by someone towards something they might be expected to take seriously. The term conveys a certain degree of lightheartedness.
Origin
Originating from the French in the late 18th Century, the word is a combination of the negative prefix in- and soucier, meaning “to trouble or disturb.” Soucier in turn came from the Latin sollicitus meaning “anxious”. The word “unsouciance” is a noun and it has been part of the English language since the 1800s.
Example sentence
