Term: DE GRATIA

Definition: De gratia means "by grace" or "of favor" in Latin. It is often used in the phrase "de speciali gratia" which means "of special grace or favor".

A more thorough explanation:

DE GRATIA

De gratia is a Latin term that means "of favor" or "by grace". It is often used in religious contexts to refer to the idea that something is given as a gift or blessing, rather than earned or deserved.

For example, the phrase "de speciali gratia" means "of special grace or favor". This might be used to describe a particularly generous act or gift that someone has received.

Another example might be the idea of "grace" in Christianity. Christians believe that they are saved by God's grace, which means that they are forgiven and given eternal life as a gift, rather than because they have earned it through good deeds or moral behavior.

Overall, the term de gratia emphasizes the idea that something is given freely and generously, without any expectation of repayment or reward.
