'non-automatic' originates from the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' and the word 'automatic,' which comes from Greek 'automatos,' meaning 'self-moving.'

'Automatic' evolved from the Greek word 'automatos' through Latin 'automaticus' and French 'automatique' before becoming the modern English word 'automatic.'

Initially, 'automatic' meant 'self-moving,' but over time it evolved to mean 'operating independently without human intervention.'
