'amphitheatric' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'amphitheatrum,' where 'amphi-' meant 'around' and 'theatrum' meant 'theater.'

'amphitheatrum' transformed into the English word 'amphitheater,' and eventually became the modern English word 'amphitheatric.'

Initially, it meant 'a circular or oval building with rising tiers of seats,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'relating to or resembling an amphitheater.'
