Etymologi

Ordet bilateral stammer fra det latinske ord bilaterālis, der er dannet af præfikset bi- (der betyder to) og ordet lāterālis (der betyder lateral eller ved siden af). Sammen har disse dele dannet betydningen vedrørende begge sider eller parter. Ordet bruges typisk til at beskrive en aftale, forpligtelse eller forhold, der gælder for begge parter eller involverer to sider eller aspekter.
