Etymology
Spontaneity comes from the Latin word sponte, which means 'of one's own will' or 'by oneself', and the same root gives us spontaneous, so imagine an action that simply comes from inside you without planning. So, spontaneity means acting on impulse or natural feeling rather than careful choice.
