👉 The term "extrinsically" is a Latin phrase that can be used to describe something that is independent of, or distinct from, its source. It means that something arises independently of any external factors or influences. For example, if someone says they are an expert in their field because they have studied it extensively and applied it consistently, "extrinsically" could mean that the person has developed a deep understanding and mastery of the topic, independent of any previous experience or training.
