- 1詳述、具體說明（偏書面；口語較常說 specify 或講清楚細節）
To particularize is to give the details of something, one by one, instead of speaking in a general way. If someone complains but will not particularize, they will not say what exactly went wrong. The verb is formal, and a little old-fashioned in everyday English; most people say specify, list the details, or spell it out. You still meet it in careful writing and older books. American spelling is particularize; British writing often has particularise. The shape of the word can trick you: it does not mean “make something special.”
