Meaning:
The sudden or violent entrance or incursion of a large number of creatures, people, or objects into a place. It is often used to describe a natural disaster, such as a volcanic eruption or a flood, or a military invasion.
Origin:
The word "irruption" entered the English language in the 14th century, from the Late Latin word "irruptio," which itself derived from the Latin verb "irrumpere," meaning "to break in." The Latin word is composed of the prefix "in-," meaning "in," and the verb "rumpere," meaning "to break." The prefix "in-" indicates that the action of breaking is directed inward, while the verb "rumpere" describes the act of breaking or bursting through something. Thus, the word "irruption" originally referred to the act of breaking into a place, and it is still used in this sense today.
