Etymology
The Modern Greek word 'τύπος' meaning 'type' originates from Ancient Greek 'τύπος', which referred to an impression, mark, or figure. This term was used in various contexts, including printing and casting, to denote a model or pattern. Over time, it evolved to mean a category or class in Modern Greek.
