‘Poly’ meaning many and ‘ticks’ meaning blood-sucking parasites. Nah, just kidding. ‘Polis’ is from the Greek meaning city or state, ‘politikos’ describes things concerning state or city affairs. In Latin, this was ‘politicus’ and in French ‘politique’. Thus it became ‘politics’ in the English language.
