Word Origin & Etymology
Coined in the 19th century as a noun of action from the verb 'syndicate', which derives via French from Late Latin 'syndicus' and Ancient Greek 'syndikos' (meaning an advocate in a court of law or a public representative), formed from 'syn-' (together) and 'dike' (justice or custom).
