Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Greek word 'sēmantikos' meaning 'significant', rooted in 'sēmainein' (to show by sign) and 'sēma' (sign). It entered modern linguistic terminology in the late 19th century through French ('sémantique') to describe the scientific study of meaning in language.
