Etymology of ACROTIC

The word "acrotic" is derived from the Greek word "akros", meaning "high point" or "extreme", and the Greek word "tikós", meaning "pertaining to". Combining these two roots, "akrotikós" in Greek means "pertaining to the highest point" or "topmost". The English word "acrotic" borrows from this Greek word and retains a similar meaning.
