Etymology of Arabic words: the word تقنية
(tekniya) which means technique is a loan word from Greek. The greek
word is τεχνική (tehniki) has the same meaning and derives from the
ancient word τέχνη (tehni) which means art. Initially the word τέχνη
had the meaning of skillfulness and the knowledge of executing a work
and later (at the time of Platon) acquired the meaning we know today.
In Turkish they use the word teknik. Most of the languages from the
european languages till the urdu have adopted the greek word slightly
changed.
