Etymology
'graphic-oriented' originates from the English word 'graphic,' which comes from the Greek word 'graphikos,' meaning 'pertaining to drawing or writing.' The suffix '-oriented' is derived from the Latin 'orientare,' meaning 'to arrange or align.'
'graphic' evolved from the Greek 'graphikos' to the Latin 'graphicus,' and eventually became the modern English word 'graphic.' The term 'oriented' was added to form 'graphic-oriented.'
Initially, 'graphic' meant 'pertaining to drawing or writing,' but over time it evolved to include any visual representation. 'Oriented' was added to specify a focus on visual elements.
