Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term combines 'artificial' from Latin 'artificialis' (made by art, skilful) and 'pacemaker' from 'pace' (Latin 'passus') plus 'maker' (Old English 'macian'). Originally referring to a human runner setting the pace in a race, the compound evolved in the mid-20th century with biomedical engineering to denote an electronic device regulating the human heartbeat.
