Etymology
'digital-centric' originates from the combination of 'digital,' which comes from Latin 'digitalis,' meaning 'pertaining to fingers' (later adapted to mean 'pertaining to digits or numbers'), and 'centric,' from Greek 'kentrikos,' meaning 'pertaining to a center.'
'digital' evolved from the Latin 'digitalis' through Old French 'digital' and Middle English 'digital,' while 'centric' evolved from Greek 'kentrikos' through Latin 'centricus' and Middle English 'centrik.'
Initially, 'digital' referred to numerical data, but over time it evolved to encompass electronic technology, while 'centric' maintained its meaning of 'centered around.'
