Inclined toward or characterized by digression; of or relating to digressions in general.
From 'digression' (noun) + '-ary' (adjective suffix). This rare variant form emphasizes the propensity for or general quality of being digressive.
This word is so formal and unusual that it's primarily found in classical rhetoric texts and academic papers analyzing the structure of old literature—modern writers prefer the simpler 'digressive.'
