Etymology
'non-mathematically' originates from the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' and the word 'mathematical', which comes from the Greek 'mathematikos', meaning 'fond of learning'.
'mathematikos' transformed into the Latin 'mathematicus', and eventually became the modern English word 'mathematical'.
Initially, it meant 'related to learning or mathematics', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'not related to mathematics'.
