Etymology
Neregulă is built from the negative prefix ne- attached to regulă, meaning rule. Regulă descends from Latin regula, a straight stick used as a measuring standard, the same source behind English regular and rule. The prefix ne- works the way English ir- does in irregular, so neregulă literally denotes a departure from the rule, an irregularity.
