Morphology
epistemic = epistemology (semi-transparent) = epistem + ic
Formed from the Greek combining form 'epistem-' plus the adjectival suffix '-ic'; the relation to 'knowledge' is direct but the morpheme is technical and may be unfamiliar to general learners.
Etymology
The word epistemic comes from the Greek episteme meaning 'knowledge'. So epistemic describes things that are about knowledge or about how we know something.
