Etymology
Dielectric comes from the prefix dia- meaning 'through' and the word electric, which is the same root as electricity. A helpful way to remember it is that a dielectric lets the effect of electricity pass across it but does not let electric current flow, so it works as an insulator in things like capacitors.
