industrial

industrial
industrial (adj.) 1774, from Fr. industriel, from M.L. industrialis, from L. industria (see INDUSTRY (Cf. industry)). Earlier the word had been used in English in a sense "resulting from labor" (1580s); the modern use is considered a reborrowing. Meaning "suitable for industrial use" is from 1904. As a style of dance music, attested from 1988. Industrial revolution was in use by 1840 to refer to recent developments and changes in England and elsewhere.
