different between thesis vs thetic
thesis
English
Etymology
From Late Middle English thesis (“lowering of the voice”) and also borrowed directly from its etymon Latin thesis (“proposition, thesis; lowering of the voice”), from Ancient Greek ????? (thésis, “arrangement, placement, setting; conclusion, position, thesis; lowering of the voice”), from ??????? (títh?mi, “to place, put, set; to put down in writing; to consider as, regard”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *d?eh?- (“to do; to place, put”)) + -??? (-sis, suffix forming abstract nouns or nouns of action, process, or result) The English word is a doublet of deed.
Sense 1.1 (“proposition or statement supported by arguments”) is adopted from antithesis. Sense 1.4 (“initial stage of reasoning”) was first used by the German philosopher Johann Gottlieb Fichte (1762–1814), and later applied to the dialectical method of his countryman, the philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831).
The plural form theses is borrowed from Latin thes?s, from Ancient Greek ?????? (théseis).
