Definition
An old or archaic term for a dwelling place or habitation.
Etymology
From Latin habitaculum, a diminutive form of habitare ('to dwell'), with the -cle suffix indicating something small. This rare medieval English word was used primarily in religious or legal texts.
Kelly Says
Medieval scribes loved creating tiny words with -cle suffixes (like 'barnacle' and 'tentacle')—habitacle is a ghost word that barely survived in English, mostly found in old monastery records and old property deeds!
