Word origin
The term 'morphology' originated from the combination of the Greek words 'morphฤ,' meaning form, and 'logos,' meaning study. It was first used in the early 19th century to refer to the study of the form and structure of organisms in biology. Over time, the term's usage expanded to include the study of forms in various fields, such as linguistics and geology.
