Origin and Evolution of non-organic

First Known Use: 1832 year
Language of Origin: Latin and English
Story behind the word: The word 'non-organic' originates from the combination of the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' and the word 'organic' which comes from the Latin word 'organicus' meaning 'relating to an organ or instrument'.
Evolution of the word: Initially used to describe things that are not derived from living organisms or that are not organic in nature, the term 'non-organic' has evolved to also refer to synthetic or chemically produced substances in contrast to natural or organic products.
