Egale

Egale is a term that can refer to several distinct concepts. In French, the form égale is the feminine singular of the adjective égal, meaning equal. It agrees with feminine nouns, as in une part égale or elle est égale à ses collègues. The unaccented spelling egale can appear in texts that omit diacritics or in older writings, but the standard modern form is égale. The word is commonly used in legal, political, and philosophical contexts to express equality, parity, or equivalence.
