Definition
Latin ablative form of exemplum, used in the phrase 'exempli gratia' (for the sake of example), commonly abbreviated as 'e.g.'
Etymology
Latin ablative singular of 'exemplum,' used in set phrases. This is a grammatical form that persists in English through the Latin phrase 'exempli gratia' which English speakers still use constantly.
Kelly Says
Every time you write 'e.g.' in an English sentence, you're using Latin grammar—'exempli gratia' literally means 'for the sake of an example,' and it's been a preferred academic shortcut for centuries.
