Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Late Latin noun 'recapitulatio', originating from the verb 'recapitulare' (to state again by heads or chapters), combining the prefix 're-' (again) with 'capitulum' (little head or chapter, diminutive of 'caput' meaning head). It entered English in the late 16th century, shifting from its literal sense of heading a summary to general concise restatement and later finding specialized applications in music and biology.
