Dutch[edit]

Etymology[edit]

Possibly from Middle Dutch economie, from Middle French economie, from Latin oeconomia, from Ancient Greek οἰκονομία (oikonomía, management of a household, administration), from οἶκος (oîkos, house) +‎ νόμος (nómos, law). By surface analysis, eco- +‎ -nomie. The first recorded sense of the word economie, found in a work possibly composed in 1440, is “the management of economic affairs”, in this case, of a monastery.
