Definition
To give out or deliver to several people or places; to spread or disperse over an area or among a group. Can refer to physical objects, resources, or abstract concepts like responsibility.
Etymology
From Latin 'distribuere,' from 'dis-' (apart) and 'tribuere' (to assign, allot). The word combines the sense of separation with allocation, meaning to divide and give out portions.
Kelly Says
Think 'dis-tribute'—you're giving tribute (payment/honor) to different people by splitting it up! Like dealing cards to players, you distribute by giving everyone their fair share.
