unanimity

noun oo-nah-nee-mee-TAH Rare

Origin: Latin unanimitas, from unus (one) + animus (mind, spirit).

Usage Note

Unanimità is invariable — it does not change in the plural (same form for singular and plural), as with all Italian nouns ending in a stressed vowel. The phrase all'unanimità means 'unanimously' and is the standard way to report a unanimous vote: approvato all'unanimità (approved unanimously).

Examples

"La proposta è stata approvata all'unanimità."

Natural Translation

The proposal was approved unanimously.
