Understanding Insensibly: Gradual Changes and Imperceptible Development

Insensibly is an adverb that means gradually or imperceptibly. It describes a change or development that occurs slowly and without being noticed or felt.

For example:

* She insensibly began to lose her hearing over time. (gradually lost her hearing)
* The company's profits have been insensibly declining in recent years. (gradually decreasing)

Insensibly is a formal word, and it is not commonly used in everyday conversation. Instead, people might use words like gradually, slowly, or imperceptibly to describe a gradual change or development.
