Nice

/naΙͺs/ adjective

Pleasant, kind, or enjoyable. It can describe people, things, experiences, or weather that make you feel good.

From Old French 'nice' meaning 'careless, clumsy, weak', from Latin 'nescius' meaning 'ignorant' ('ne' = not + 'scire' = to know). Over time, the meaning flipped through 'fussy' and 'delicate' to the modern sense of 'pleasant'.
