examples of exclusive and nonexclusive?

Answer 1

Exclusive usually means only certain people can go to or do a certain thing.

For example, Augusta National Golf Course is excusively for men. Women are not allowed to play there.


Nonexclusive of course would be the opposite.

The local golf course is nonexclusive - come one and all.

As noted by the other person, exclusive can also relate to news gathering. If I have an exclusive, you are telling only me the story.

Answer 2

exclusive [noun] [countable]
an important or exciting story that is printed in only one newspaper, because that newspaper was the first to find out about it

e.g. A New York Post exclusive about the Kennedy marriage.

exclusive [adj]
1. available or belonging only to particular people, and not shared
(exclusive access/rights/use etc)
e.g. Our figure skating club has exclusive use of the rink on Mondays.

(exclusive report/interview/coverage etc)
e.g. Tune in to our exclusive coverage of Wimbledon.

(exclusive to)
e.g. This offer is exclusive to readers of The Sun.

2. exclusive places, organizations, clothes etc are so expensive that not many people can afford to use or buy them:
e.g.1 Bel Air is an exclusive suburb of Los Angeles.
e.g.2 an exclusive girls' school

3.deliberately not allowing someone to do something or be part of a group:
e.g. a racially exclusive hiring policy

4. mutually exclusive - if two things are mutually exclusive, you cannot have or do both of them
e.g. Lesbianism and motherhood are not mutually exclusive.

5. exclusive of something - not including something [≠ inclusive of something]:
e.g. Our prices are exclusive of sales tax.

6. concerned with only one thing:

However I cannot find any for nonexclusive...
sorry about that and hope my answer can help!
