Granular

Granular is an adjective that means finely detailed. Our word of the day comes from the Latin word granum (GRAHN oom) which means ‘grain.’ When we analyze the grains of something, we are inspecting all the details. So a granular report means a highly detailed one. Here’s an example of granular in use: The initial information given to me wasn’t detailed and specific enough to be helpful. It wasn’t until I was given the granular data that I could make sense of it.
