'technology-enthusiast' originates from the combination of 'technology' and 'enthusiast'. 'Technology' comes from Greek 'tekhnologia', where 'tekhnē' meant 'art, skill' and '-logia' meant 'study of'. 'Enthusiast' comes from Greek 'enthousiastēs', where 'en-' meant 'in' and 'theos' meant 'god'.

'Technology' evolved from the Greek 'tekhnologia' to the modern English 'technology'. 'Enthusiast' evolved from the Greek 'enthousiastēs' to the modern English 'enthusiast'.

Initially, 'enthusiast' meant 'a person inspired by a god', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'a person who is very interested in a particular subject'.
