The realisation of a thing's inherent potential or the vital principle directing it toward its end.
For Aristotle, the soul is the entelechy of the living body, its potential fully actualised.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
