Histoire du terme
INCLUS, USE adj. représente un emprunt savant (1394) au latin inclusus, participe passé de includere « enfermer », « renfermer », de in- et claudere (-cludere en composition) « fermer » (--> clore) qui appartient à un ensemble de mots latins se rattachant à une base clau-, exprimant l'idée de fermeture (--> occlusion). Une forme francisée enclus, nom (1193-1197) s'est employée pour « reclus ». L'adjectif signifie d'abord (1394) « ce qui est contenu, compris (dans) », sens d'où viennent, au XVIe s., ci-inclus, ci-incluse « placé ici » (1521), locution adverbiale, ainsi que les emplois en botanique (1802, étamines incluses) et en art dentaire (1925, dent incluse). [...]
INCLUSIF, IVE adj. est emprunté au latin médiéval inclusivus « qui inclut », attesté (v. 900) après le latin chrétien inclusive « inclusivement » (Ve s.). Ce nom est formé sur inclusum, supin de includere. Inclusif est d'abord attesté (1507) au sens d'« inclus », disparu. Il s'applique ensuite à ce qui renferme (qqch.) en soi (1688), sens repris au XIXe s. (1823) et employé spécialement en linguistique (av.1873). Par emprunt de sens (v. 1970) à l'anglais inclusive « qui inclut » (de même origine que le français), l'adjectif s'emploie pour « tout compris » dans le vocabulaire de la publicité. Egalement par anglicisme, on rencontre l'adjectif au sens de « qui n'exclut personne » dans des locutions comme école, société inclusive. [...]
