Definition
During the time that something is happening; while.
Etymology
From Medieval Latin 'durant-' meaning 'lasting' or 'enduring,' used in legal and formal English contexts to mean 'during' or 'throughout.'
Kelly Says
This word is almost exclusively used in legal phrases like 'durante life' (during one's lifetime), making it a hidden gem of formal English that few people know still exists!
