'technology-resistant' is a compound word formed from 'technology' and 'resistant'. 'Technology' originates from Greek, specifically the word 'technologia', where 'techne' meant 'art, skill' and 'logia' meant 'study of'. 'Resistant' comes from Latin 'resistere', where 're-' meant 'back' and 'sistere' meant 'to stand'.

'Technology' evolved from the Greek 'technologia' through Latin and Old French before becoming the modern English word. 'Resistant' evolved from Latin 'resistere' through Old French 'resistant' before becoming the modern English word.

Initially, 'technology' referred to the study of arts and skills, but over time it evolved to mean the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes. 'Resistant' has largely retained its meaning of 'withstanding' or 'opposing'.
