Etymology: < (i) post-classical Latin technicus of or relating to the arts or sciences (1542 or earlier in a Latin–English dictionary; frequently from early 17th cent. in continental sources), (of a term) technical (1682 or earlier), and its etymon (ii) ancient Greek τεχνικός artistic, skilful, done by rules of art, technical, systematic, in Hellenistic Greek also artificial < τέχνη art, craft (see techno- comb. form) + -ικός -ic suffix.

In use as noun probably largely after German Technik technique, technical methods of an art or science collectively (1724, earliest in the compound Hydrotechnik hydrotechnology), specific technical method (early 19th cent.), technology (early 19th cent.); compare French technique technique n., and also Hellenistic Greek τεχνικόν technical excellence, classical Latin technicus (noun) expert in any art or skill (Quintilian), post-classical Latin technica (neuter plural noun) (1664 or earlier in a work title (Technica curiosa, sive mirabilia artis ), in uncertain sense, probably ‘facts belonging to art or science’).
