Type: article
Abstract: What is Phīlasophīā? What is Phīlosophūs? What is Sūfisṭīqā? What is Sūfisṭīqā? These words are derived from the same root, yet their meanings are diametrically not. Phīlasophīā (Philosophy) and Phīlosophūs (Philosopher) are opposed respectively to Sūfisṭīqā (Sophistry), and the Sūfisṭīqī (Sophist). These words are compounds: Phīlasophīā and Phīlosophūs are composed of Phīla and Sophīā (or sophūs); Sūfisṭīqā, and Sūfisṭīqī are composed of sophūs and (sṭ)īqī. However, all these forms are composed of Sophīā, which forms the second part of the formulae Phīlasophīā and Phīlosophūs, and the first part of Sūfisṭīqā and Sūfisṭīqī. When the second part of the compound noun is: “...-Sophīā”, Phīla-sophīā or Phīlo-sophūs, the word has a positive meaning, namely the love of wisdom, and when the first part of the compound noun is “Sophīā-...”, Sūfisṭīqā or Sūfisṭīqī, the word has a negative meaning, namely pseudo-wisdom.
