non-AN-yoo-ul

Definition

Not adjusted or expressed as an annual rate; specifically used here to describe growth figures calculated for the specific period mentioned rather than projected over a full year.

Etymology

Derived from the Latin prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' and the Latin 'annuus' meaning 'yearly' or 'annual', which itself comes from 'annus' meaning 'year'.

In the news

The term distinguishes raw growth rates for the second quarter from the 'annualized' figures used elsewhere, providing a clearer picture of growth during that specific time frame.
