Etymology: Originally < post-classical Latin empiria (1513 or earlier) < ancient Greek ἐμπειρία experience, practice founded upon experiment and observation, especially in medicine, empiricism < ἔμπειρος experienced, practised ( < ἐμ- , variant (before a labial) of ἐν- en- prefix2 + πεῖρα trial, experiment: see peirameter n.) + -ία -y suffix3. In later use in philosophical contexts probably reborrowed < German Empirie (1752; 1597 as empiria , with Latin inflectional endings; < post-classical Latin empiria ).
