Word origin

The word 'particular' has its origin in the Middle English word 'particuler', which came from the Old French word 'particuler' meaning 'individual' or 'personal'. It further traces back to the Latin word 'particularis', from 'particula' meaning 'small part'. The term has evolved over time to encompass the idea of singling out specific individuals or details.
