Etymology

**Etymology** The adverb *particulièrement* is formed from the French adjective *particulier* plus the suffix *‑ment*, which marks adverbs. *Particulier* itself comes from Old French *particular*, from Latin *particularis*, meaning “of a small part,” derived from *particula* (“little part”) which in turn comes from *pars* (“part”). The adverb first appeared in the 14th‑century French as *particulierment*, evolving into the modern *particulièrement*.
