Detailed meaning of exempt

When an entity or individual is exempt, they are granted special privileges or are freed from certain responsibilities that would typically apply. This exemption can arise due to legal provisions, specific circumstances, or designated statuses. For instance, certain tax-exempt organizations are not required to pay taxes, while diplomatic personnel may be exempt from certain local laws. Being exempt often implies a distinctive status that sets the exempted subject apart from others by relieving them of a particular burden or obligation.

History and etymology of exempt

The adjective 'exempt' has its origins in Latin and Old French. It can be traced back to the Latin word 'eximere,' which is a combination of 'ex,' meaning 'out of' or 'away from,' and 'emere,' meaning 'to take' or 'to obtain.' Originally, 'eximere' meant to take out or remove something from a larger group or category. This notion of removal or exclusion is key to the etymology of 'exempt.' As the word transitioned through Old French and into English, it retained its fundamental sense of being excluded or immune from a particular obligation, requirement, or rule that others are subject to. Thus, the etymology of 'exempt' underscores its historical association with exemption from certain responsibilities or regulations.
