词源

From bounce back (“to recover from bad circumstances”) + -ability (suffix forming nouns indicating an ability, inclination, or suitability for a specified condition or function). Suggestions that the word was coined in 2004 by Iain Dowie (born 1965), then manager of Crystal Palace Football Club, are inaccurate as the Oxford English Dictionary records a quotation dating back to 1972, but Dowie’s use of the word may have caused it to gain in popularity.
