Morphology
autonomy = auto + nom + y
In the computing and robotics sense, the meaning is a specialized extension of the same learned classical formation, and the bound root is still not transparent enough for an average B1 learner to derive 'independent operation' from the parts.
Etymology
Autonomy comes from the Greek parts auto- ('self') and -nomy ('rule' or 'law'), the same auto- you see in automatic. So when we talk about a machine's autonomy, we mean it can act and make decisions by itself without direct human control.
