On this weeks Word Wednesday, Lindsay has presented the word "Haecceity".
Haecceity (noun, Latin, mid 17th century):
The property of being a unique and individual thing.
“I know each Book Interrupted member has haecceity and can’t be constrained by categories.”
This word stems from the medieval Latin “haecceitas.” It comes from the Latin “haec,” feminine of “hic,” meaning “this.”
