Word Origin & Etymology
Borrowed in the 15th century from Medieval Latin organizatio, derived from the Greek organon ('instrument, tool, or organ of sense'). It originally referred to the biological structure of living beings before expanding in the 18th and 19th centuries to denote systematic arrangement and formal social institutions.
