means The state of living or lasting forever, never subject to death or ending.
from From Latin immortalis — in- ('not') plus mortalis ('mortal, subject to death'), itself rooted in mors, 'death.' The word entered English via Old French in the medieval period, carried mostly through theology and poetry, where it did the heavy lifting of describing souls, gods, and fame — anything humans wished could dodge the one deadline no one negotiates.
