What is the definition of Constitutional? ๐ ๐
A walk that is taken regularly for good health and wellbeing.
Okay class, settle down, letโs take a look!
That definition of "constitutional" โ โa walk that is taken regularly for good health and wellbeingโ - is a little bit of a trick! It's not quite right, you see.
Let's think about the word itself. โConstitutionalโ comes from the Latin root "constituto," which means โto establishโ or โto form.โ Itโs all about ๐foundation๐ and ๐structure๐.
So, when we use โconstitutionalโ in a bigger sense, it means something is
based on a fundamental set of rules or principles.
Think of it like building blocks โ a strong foundation makes everything else stand tall!
Here are some examples to help you understand:
๐
Constitutional Law:
That's the law ๐built upon๐ the Constitution, our countryโs core rules.
๐
Constitutional Government:
A government that operates according to its established principles โ fairness and justice for all!
Itโs not about walking; it's about being
established
and
fundamental
, like a sturdy, solid base.
Does that make more sense? Do you have any questions about what โconstitutionalโ truly means?
