Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Late Latin physicalis, originating from the Ancient Greek physikos, meaning 'pertaining to nature' (from physis, 'nature'). It entered Middle English in the late 14th century initially to describe medicine and the natural sciences, gradually broadening to denote material things versus spiritual or mental ones.
