plenaryadjective

/ˈpliːnəri//ˈpliːnəri/

The word "plenary" originates from the Latin word "plenarius," which means "full" or "complete." In law, a plenary power refers to a complete and full authority, as opposed to a limited or delegated authority. In a meeting or session, a plenary session refers to a meeting where all members are present and participating, as opposed to a meeting of a committee or subgroup. In a broader sense, the word "plenary" can also mean "complete" or "full" in a figurative sense. For example, a plenary indulgence is a complete forgiveness of sins, and a plenary power is a complete and full authority. The word "plenary" has been used in English since the 15th century and is derived from the Latin "plenarius" and the suffix "-ial," which forms an adjective meaning "pertaining to" or "related to."
