Forms
synergia f (genitive synergiae); first declension[1]
Etymology
It is borrowed from Ancient Greek συνεργία (sunergía, “joint work, cooperation”),[1][2] from συνεργός (sunergós, “working together”),[1][2] from σύν (sún, “together”) and ἔργον (érgon, “work”).[1][2]
Semantic evolution
Etymonline treats it as a Modern Latin word, the source of English synergy, which at first meant cooperation in a theological sense.[2] In Greek the noun could also be used in a bad sense, of a conspiracy.[2]
