compartmental

/kəmˌpɑɹtˈmɛntəɫ/ adj

Of, pertaining to, or constructed from compartments

Word Origin From Latin 'com-' (together) and 'pars' (part) — a compartment is literally a part that is together with others, a section separated off. 'Compartmental' is the adjective form. The root 'part' is incredibly productive: we see it in 'partial', 'particle', 'partition', 'depart', 'impart', and 'partner' (one who shares a part). The idea of dividing into parts is central.
