Etymology[edit]
Originally from Ancient Greek γεω- (geō-), from γῆ (gê, “earth”) + Ancient Greek λόγος (lógos, “speech, oration, study”), likely via various Slavic languages—e.g. geolog, гео́лог (geólog), гео́лог (heóloh)—from which it was borrowed by Jewish bilingual speakers as Yiddish געאָלאָג (geolog), whence it made its way into the modern Hebrew lexicon.
Noun[edit]
גֵּאוֹלוֹג • (geológ) m (plural indefinite גֵּאוֹלוֹגִים, singular construct גֵּאוֹלוֹג־, plural construct גֵּאוֹלוֹגֵי־, feminine counterpart גֵּאוֹלוֹגִית)
- geologist (male, or ungendered)
