Overview
Senile means related to aging. For example, senile weakness is a form of weakness happening in old people.[1]
The word senile comes from the latin sen meaning "old". This word was first coined in 1661.[1] In Persian language, "سن" (pronounced as "sen") means "age".
Senile may also refer to Dementia, which is a disease typically seen in the elderly.
