Etymology
'non-critic' originates from the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' and the word 'critic,' which comes from the Greek word 'kritikos,' meaning 'able to discern or judge.'
'Critic' evolved from the Greek word 'kritikos' to the Latin 'criticus,' and eventually became the modern English word 'critic.' The prefix 'non-' was added to form 'non-critic.'
Initially, 'critic' meant 'able to discern or judge,' and 'non-critic' was formed to denote someone who does not engage in such activities.
