Definition ostensible

Etymology

Borrowed from French ostensible, formed, with the suffix -ible, from Latin ostensus, the past participle of ostend? (“show”), itself from obs- (“in front of”) (akin to ob- (“in the way”) and to Ancient Greek ??? (epí, “on, at, besides, after”) and Old English eofot (“crime”)) + tend? (“stretch”) (akin to Ancient Greek ????? (teín?)). Cf. also Medieval Latin ostensibilis.

Adjective

ostensible (comparative more ostensible, superlative most ostensible)

  1. Apparent, evident; meant for open display.
  2. Appearing as such; being such in appearance; professed, supposed (rather than demonstrably true or real).
