It isn't vulgar to make known the roots of "divulge." The preceding sentence contains two hints about the origins of today's word. "Divulge" was borrowed into Middle English in the 15th century from Latin "divulgare," a word that combines the prefix "dis-," meaning "apart" or "in different directions," with "vulgare," meaning "to make known." "Vulgare," in turn, derives from the Latin noun "vulgus," meaning "mob" or "common people." As you have no doubt guessed, English "vulgar" is another word that can be traced back to "vulgus"; it came into use about a century before "divulge."
