📖 Etymology

Origin: English "technical" — related to a particular field or industry

First known use: 20th century

The prefix 'non-' is derived from Latin, meaning 'not', which negates the term 'technical'. The term is commonly used to describe information or skills that aren't confined to a specific technical field.
