    [Noun]  | "fac*ul*ty" | \ ˈfa-kəl-tē \


    1: ability, power: such as

    2: innate or acquired ability to act or do

    3: an inherent capability, power, or function

    Origin: 14th century ;

     Middle English faculte "power, ability, field of knowledge, branch of learning at a university," borrowed from Anglo-French faculté, borrowed from Medieval Latin facultāt-, facultās (Latin, "power, ability, opportunity, quantity available"), from Latin *faklis, earlier form of facilis "easy, accommodating" + -tāt-, -tās {see: |-ty|-ty} {mat|facile|};

      * Note : Latin facultās presumably developed from an original *faklitāts (via *fakl̥tāts > *fakiltāts > facultās), and hence is a doublet of facilitās "quality of being easily performed" (see: {facility|facility}), a derivative formed after facilis had assumed its attested form (with *-klis > -cilis). The difference in meaning between the two derivatives suggests the original adjective *faklis may have meant something like "possessing the power, able" (whence "easily done," conforming to other adjectives in -ilis).;
