Etymology
The word passionate comes from passion, which originally meant 'suffering' and comes from the Latin root pati meaning 'to suffer'. In old times 'passion' often named the suffering of Christ, but later it grew to mean any very strong feeling that seems to take control, so being passionate is to feel something very strongly.
