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.
