Definition of angular

The word "angular" originates from the Latin word "angularis," which means "formed into an angle" or "angular." This Latin word is a combination of "angulus," meaning "angle" or "corner," and the suffix "-aris," which forms an adjective. The word "angular" has been used in English since the 15th century to describe something that is shaped like an angle or has angular features. In mathematics and geometry, an angle is a measure of the amount of rotation between two lines or planes, and in the context of architecture, "angular" refers to a building's shape or design, which may include sharp angles or geometric forms.
