Usage Examples

Etymology

From Latin *incidentia* (plural of *incidentia*), the past‑participle form of *incidere* “to fall upon” (in‑ “in” + *cīdere* “to fall”, from the same root as *caedere* “to cut”). The term entered French in the 13th century as *incident*, originally meaning “something that happens by chance or an event”, and over time it broadened to denote any occurrence or happening.
