Etymology of THINKING MACHINE

The etymology of the phrase "thinking machine" can be traced back to the combination of two separate words: "thinking" and "machine".

1. "Thinking": This word has its origin in Middle English and Old English. It comes from the verb "thinken", which is derived from the Old English word "thencan" meaning "to conceive, to ponder, to consider". The word "think" developed from this verb and has been in use since the 14th century. It refers to the mental process of contemplating or reasoning.

2. "Machine": The term "machine" has an etymology rooted in Latin. The Latin word "machina" originally referred to a war machine or a device used in theatrical effects. Over time, its meaning expanded to include various mechanical devices. The word made its way into Middle French as "machine" and then into English during the 16th century.
