What does the word Alumni mean?

Question

Alumni "meaning for school"

Answer 1

People who graduated from a certain school.

Answer 2

Alumni ( Plural form fo alumnus and alumna )

An alumnus (masculine) or alumna (feminine) of a college, university, or school is a former student, but is most often used to denote actual graduates with formal degrees from a degree-granting institution.

The plural is alumni for men and mixed groups and alumnae for women. It is important to note that in Latin (and inherited English) practice the masculine plural includes the feminine, hence its application both to male-only and mixed groups.

The words are derived from the Latin verb alere, "to nourish," and literally mean "nourished one."

The term is often mistakenly thought of as synonymous with "graduate" because it is most commonly used as such, even though it is not literally correct.

Sometimes used in informal settings are the incorrect alum or alumn as is the gender-neutral plural equivalent alums.

Alumni reunions are popular events at many institutions. They are usually organized by alumni associations and are often social occasions for fundraising.

Recently, the definition of "alumni" has expanded to include people who have departed from any kind of organization or program. As such, one can potentially be a "corporate alum" of XYZ Company, or an alum of a military branch, non-profit organization, fraternities and sororities, or training process.

Answer 6

Literally, it is the translation of the plural latin word for "students" or "pupils". In the English language it has taken on the meaning of former students in an institution. Some have even added on the meaning of former participants in any organization or activity, - that is getting pretty fatr from the original sense.
