universelle

Universelle is the feminine form of the French adjective universel, meaning universal, general, or worldwide. As a regular part of French grammar, it is used to describe feminine nouns and agrees in number and gender (singular feminine universelle; plural universelles). The term appears in diverse contexts to evoke broad applicability or global scope, from philosophy and law to branding and culture.

In philosophical, legal, and ethical writing, universelle appears in expressions such as vérité universelle (universal truth) or loi universelle (universal law). The concept is closely related to discussions of universality, generality, and the idea that certain claims, principles, or standards hold across contexts or populations.

As a proper noun, Universelle is used as a name or part of a title by various organizations, companies, and products, especially in francophone markets. In branding, it is chosen to convey inclusivity, breadth of reach, or a connection to French language and culture.
