Libido:
The word "libido" in Latin means "desire, longing, fancy, lust, or rut." Although the adjective "libidinous" meaning lustful has been used in English for 500 or so years, "libido" made a belated entry into the English language in1913, thanks to Sigmund Freud and other psychoanalysts who applied the term to psychic energy or drive, especially the sexual instinct.
