Etymology
The prefix 'non-' originates from Latin, meaning 'not.' The word 'drink' comes from Old English 'drincan,' meaning 'to swallow liquid.' The suffix '-related' is derived from Latin 'relatus,' meaning 'brought back.'
'Non-drink-related' is a modern English compound adjective formed by combining 'non-' with 'drink' and '-related.'
Initially, 'non-' meant 'not,' and 'drink' referred to any liquid consumed. The term 'non-drink-related' has maintained its meaning of 'not associated with drinks.'
