Doric
In architectural contexts, this term describes a specific aesthetic of austerity and strength. It is often contrasted with the Ionic and Corinthian orders, which are more ornate. When used to describe a building, it suggests a lack of decoration and a focus on structural solidity.
When referring to the dialect or the people, the term is strictly historical and academic. It identifies a specific linguistic group of ancient Greece, distinguishing them from the Attic or Ionic speakers. Because it refers to a specific proper entity (the Dorians), the word is consistently capitalized regardless of whether it functions as an adjective or a noun.
