Etymology

The term 'bulletining' is derived from the noun 'bullet', which itself comes from the French word 'boulette', meaning 'small ball' or 'bullet'. The modern use of 'bullet' to denote a marking point can be traced back to the use of dot or symbol to highlight key items in a list. This practice became more prevalent with the advent of typewriters and later word processing software, allowing users to visually separate items in a list for clarity. Over time, 'bulleting' evolved into a common verb form, 'bulletining', which refers to the act of creating these lists. The formalization of this practice reflects a broader trend in writing towards clearer and more concise communication, making information more accessible.
