Etymology

The term 'globularly' originates from the Latin word 'globulus', which is a diminutive form of 'globus', meaning 'sphere' or 'globe'. The use of 'globular' in English can be traced back to the 14th century, where it began to denote objects that are spherical in shape. The adverbial form 'globularly' likely came into use as the language evolved to provide a means to describe the manner in which something is round or spherical. Other related forms, such as 'globularness', have also appeared in English usage, reflecting the importance of describing three-dimensional shapes in various scientific contexts, including astronomy and biology.
