Etymology

Derived from the Latin *diversus*, the past participle of *divertere* “to turn aside, to vary”, the term entered Old French as *divers* in the 12th century. Initially an adjective meaning “various, diverse”, it later acquired a noun sense denoting a mixture or collection of different elements, a usage that survives in legal and literary contexts. The word’s core meaning has remained tied to the idea of turning away from uniformity.
