Natural abilities or skills that help someone learn or do something well.
From Middle French 'aptitude,' from Late Latin 'aptitudo' (fitness, suitability), derived from 'aptus' (fitted). The '-itude' suffix creates abstract nouns expressing states or qualities.
Your aptitudes are different from your talents—aptitude is your natural potential to learn something, while talent is something you've already developed!
