Root Explanation

The word 'theologically' is formed from 'theo-' (from Greek 'theos', meaning god) and '-logy' (from Greek 'logia', meaning study or discourse). Thus, 'theologically' refers to the study or discourse about God or religious beliefs.

Memory Tip

Think of 'theo' as relating to 'God' and '-logy' as the study of something — so 'theologically' means the study of God.
