Annual

Annual, from the Latin annuum, or year means pertaining to a year or happening every year.

An annual plant has a lifespan of a year or less. These are generally plants adapted to life as weeds or in difficult habitats where quick flowering and seeding are necessary.

An annual publication, more often called simply an annual, is a book or a magazine, comic book or comic strip published yearly.

Annual is also the name of a Moroccan settlement 120 km west of Mililla.
