electro-, electr-, electri- (Latin: electric, electricity [amber, resembling amber], generated from amber which when rubbed vigorously [as by friction], produced the effect of static electricity, as described by Dr. William Gilbert [1540-1603] in a treatise on the magnet in 1600).

The word "electricity" was first used by the English physician Sir Thomas Browne (1605-1682) in 164
6. The word "electrode" was coined by the English physicist and chemist Michael Faraday (1791-1867). The words "electrolysis" and "electrolyte" were introduced by Faraday at the suggestion of the Reverend William Whewell. Cf. cyber- for electronics.
