The word "schematic" originates from the Greek word "schēma," meaning "form" or "shape." This was further influenced by the Latin word "schema," referring to an outline or plan. During the 18th century, the term "schematic" evolved to describe a simplified diagram or representation. This usage solidified in the 19th century with the advent of technical drawings and diagrams, particularly in engineering and science. Today, "schematic" is commonly used to describe any representation that simplifies complex systems or concepts.
