Etymology
Δυναμικός is built from δύναμις, the ancient Greek word for power, force, or ability, plus the adjective-forming suffix -ικός. The word passed into French and English as dynamique and dynamic. The ultimate origin of δύναμις itself is not securely established, so no Proto-Indo-European root is given here.
