analytikó

Analytikó is the neuter form of the Greek adjective αναλυτικό, transliterated analytikó, meaning "analytical" or "detailed." In Modern Greek usage, it describes things that involve careful examination or breakdown, such as texts, data, or procedures. The masculine and feminine counterparts are αναλυτικός and αναλυτική, while αναλυτικό is commonly used before neuter nouns (for example, αναλυτικό πρόγραμμα, meaning a detailed curriculum; αναλυτικό έγγραφο, a detailed document).

Etymology and cognates: The term derives from the Greek noun ανάλυση (analysis), which in turn comes from the verb αναλύω (to analyze, to break down). The Greek family of terms аналитичний in English and other languages reflects the same semantic field of analysis and breakdown.

Usage and scope: In scientific, mathematical, and philosophical contexts, αναλυτικός/αναλυτικά convey a method of proceeding by decomposing a whole into parts. Phrases such as αναλυτική εργασία (analytic or detailed paper) or αναλυτική προσέγγιση (analytic approach) are common. In everyday speech, analytikó emphasizes thoroughness or precision when describing procedures, data reports, or explanations.
