[French appartement, from Italian appartamento, from appartare, to separate, from a parte, apart : a, to (from Latin ad-; see ad–) + parte, side (from Latin pars, part-; see part).]
To live apart, as a unit, in one large bulding.

An apartment is a piece (part) off a building which is also lived in by tenants/owners. So the word apartment was formed. If this is wrong it was a mighty good try!

Why is there braile on those force via ATM machines? Why is it referred to as a television set once you purely get one. Why do you force on a freeway and park on a driveway? What develop into the main suitable concern in the previous sliced bread?
