Definition
relating to or of the nature of an edict; issued by legal or governmental authority.
Etymology
From 'edict' (Latin 'edictum' from 'edicere' 'to proclaim') plus '-al' (from Latin '-alis'), an adjective-forming suffix; the term is used in legal and historical contexts.
Kelly Says
Roman emperors issued 'edicts' (official proclamations), and the word's power lingers in law today—'edictal' language sounds authoritative because edicts were literally the law, announced from on high!
