uniform
Always the same
Uniform describes things that are all the same—consistent throughout or identical across instances: uniform size, uniform standards, uniform temperature.
The word suggests deliberate consistency rather than natural sameness.
As a noun, a uniform is standardized clothing worn by members of a group—soldiers, students, nurses, athletes—to signal membership and eliminate individual variation: school uniform, military uniform.
The verb means to dress in such clothing or to make consistent.
