The term "pigeon hole" or "pigeonhole" can describe a small open space (cubbyhole) used for any purpose (storage, sorting, and so forth), taken from the small enclosures used to contain nesting pigeons. Used idiomatically :
- A pigeonhole is also a category, especially one that is too specific.
- A person's position or work description, one that arbitrarily assigns a specific area of responsibility. To be "pigeonholed" is to be categorized as having a particular function, without regard to a person's other talents or skills.
Example : "Bill could not get a supervisor's job because he had been pigeonholed as a data checker."
(This slang usage is not considered proper grammar.)
- In the legislature, bills are "pigeonholed" when they are put aside and ignored, as by a Congressional committee in either house. (see related question)
