'non-tech-savvy' originates from the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' combined with 'tech-savvy', where 'tech' is short for 'technology' and 'savvy' means 'knowledgeable'.

'tech-savvy' evolved from the combination of 'tech' and 'savvy', and the prefix 'non-' was added to indicate the opposite meaning.

Initially, 'savvy' meant 'shrewdness or practical knowledge', and over time, it evolved to include specific knowledge in technology when combined with 'tech'.
