popular:
I. Of the people: pŏpŭlāris, e: the breath of p. favour, p. aura, Hor. Od. 3, 2, 20: Cic.: or expr. by gen. of populus: the p. feeling, populi sensus, Cic. Att. 2, 19, 2.
II. Relating to the people as distinguished from the aristocracy: pŏpŭlāris: a p. form of government, reipublicae genus p., Cic. Rep. 2, 23. Hence, the p. party, populares, opp. optimates: Cic. Sext. 45, init.
III. In general favour
1. pŏpŭlāris (somewhat rare in this sense): a man p. for his very gravity and sternness, homo ipsa tristitia et severitate p., Cic. Br. 25, 97 (in Cic. Cat. 4, 5, 10, to be p., is expr. by populares haberi, to be looked upon as men of the people, the friends of the people: and this is the best use of the word): a very useful present but not equally p.

Ep. 1, 2, 6: Cic.: to become less p., studium populi amittere, Cic. Att. 10, 4, 2.
IV. Adapted for general use; or actually so used: Phr.: a p. style, genus dictionis ad vulgarem popularemque sensum accommodatum, Cic. de Or. 1, 23, 108: to adopt a p. style, populariter loqui, id. Fin. 2, 6, 17: a p. treatise, liber populariter scriptus; liber ἐξωτερικός, id. 5, 5, 12: later, exotericus is used as a Latin word: Gell. 20, 5, med.: the p. name (of a plant), populare nomen, Plin. 13, 4, 9 § 48 (see alsoCOMMON ).
