The word "universally" stems from the Latin "universalis," meaning "of the whole universe." This word itself combines "universus," meaning "whole" or "entire," with the suffix "-alis," indicating "pertaining to" or "relating to." The root "universus" can be broken down further: "unus" (one) and "versus" (turned), suggesting the idea of everything being "turned" into one complete entity. Therefore, "universally" ultimately conveys the concept of something applying to or encompassing the whole universe or everything, hence its association with widespread acceptance or applicability.
