Etymology

The word is the verbal noun of the form III verb عالَجَ, meaning to treat or to work on. It derives from the triconsonantal root ع-ل-ج, tied to the idea of grappling with or handling something. The مُفاعَلة pattern gives it the sense of sustained effort applied to an object, which extends from medical care to industrial processing.
