Etymology of Education

Education is, according to Merriam-Webster, the process of teaching one or more individuals,
usually in college or school or university. Interestingly enough, the question what is
education is a very deep one.

One of the most common errors that people make is that they confuse education with schooling.

Schooling is simply education you received at school (and if youre into horse racing, the
obstacles in the course are called schooling fences).

The use of the word schooling in this sense has to do with training an animal (typically a horse).

There is no humanity (not as we know it, anyway) without education. Even the most primitive
tribes today employ some method of education to teach their fellow tribesmen and tribeswomen
how to fish or use a spear.

Latin has a fair amount of words related to education, training, instruction, schooling, etc.

In alphabetic order, all of these have something to do with

education: cultus,disciplina, doctrina, eruditio, institutio, ineruditio.

The root of the word education, however, lies somewhere else:

Etymology
The first written record of the word education is found in the 1530s. It comes from the
Latin educare (to educate, to train, to rear, to bring up) as well as the
words educatio and educationis, which signify bringing up or rearing.

The word for education in Middle French is ducation.

Educare is a combination of the words e(out) and ducare (lead, drawing), or drawing out. Most
modern etymologists agree that this implied meaning is not a misinterpretation, and
that drawing out is indeed the true meaning of educare.

Education in Spanish is educacin; in Portuguese: educao; in Italian:educazione.
