Universali

Universali is primarily an Italian term that functions as the plural form of universale, meaning universal. In Italian usage, universali can refer to universal properties, general laws, or general principles, depending on the context. The word derives from Latin universalis, and in Italian grammar universali can be used as an adjective or as a noun in plural. In philosophy, universali denotes abstract properties or types that can be shared by multiple particular things; it is central to the debate on the nature of universals, contrasting realism, which holds universals exist independently, with nominalism or conceptualism.

In ethics and law, universali appear in phrases such as principi universali (universal principles) or diritti universali (universal rights), referencing norms or rights thought to apply across contexts or populations.

In cultural usage, universali may appear in titles, slogans, or branding associated with ideas of inclusivity or broad applicability, but there is no single, universally recognized entity named Universali. If a specific organization, work, or product called Universali exists, additional identifying information would help locate it.
