Algorithm
The word 'algorithm' has its roots in Latinizing the name of Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi in a first step to "algorismus". Al-Khwārizmī (, , c. 780–850) was a Persian mathematician, astronomer, geographer, and scholar in the House of Wisdom in Baghdad, whose name means 'the native of Khwarezm', a region that was part of Greater Iran and is now in Uzbekistan.
Etymology of chemistry
In the history of science, the etymology of the word chemistry is debatable. It is agreed that the word derives from the word "alchemy", which is a European one, derived from "kimiya" () and alchemy "al-kīmiyāʾ" (). The Arabic term is derived from the Ancient Greek "khēmia" or "khēmeia". However, the ultimate origin of the root word, "chem", is uncertain.
