Etymologie (Engels)

From Middle English phisik, from Latin physicus, from Ancient Greek φῠσῐκός (phusikós, “natural; physical”), from φύσις (phúsis, “origin, birth; nature, quality; form, shape; type, kind”), from φῠ́ω (phúō, “grow”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰuH- (“to appear, become, rise up”).
