digital-exclusive
|dig-i-tal-ex-clu-sive|
/ˈdɪdʒɪtəl ɪkˈskluːsɪv/
available only digitally
Etymology
'digital-exclusive' originates from the combination of 'digital,' which comes from Latin 'digitalis,' meaning 'pertaining to fingers' (later adapted to mean 'pertaining to digits or numbers'), and 'exclusive,' from Latin 'excludere,' meaning 'to shut out.'
'Digital' evolved from the Latin 'digitalis' through Middle English, while 'exclusive' transformed from Latin 'excludere' through Old French 'exclusif' to modern English.
Initially, 'digital' referred to numerical representation, but it evolved to encompass electronic formats. 'Exclusive' maintained its meaning of 'limited to a particular group or area.'
