No, "ordinateur" was a marketing term created for IBM that meant to evoke godliness, from the somewhat archaic phrase, "Dieu qui met de l'ordre dans le monde", God who sets the world in order. https://www.lemonde.fr/planete/article/2005/04/15/16-avril-1... Spain calqued the word into ordenador while most of Latin America calqued computadora from the USA. |
