different between ergonomics vs ergonomist
ergonomics
English
Etymology
ergo- (prefix indicating work) +? -nomics (suffix indicating the rules of a discipline), probably modelled after Polish ergonomia (“ergonomics”) (used by Polish scientist Wojciech Jastrz?bowski (1799–1882) in an 1857 article), from Ancient Greek ????? (érgon, “work”) + ????? (nómos, “custom; law, ordinance”). The English word is widely regarded as having been introduced by British psychologist K. F.
