How Academic
Surface Forms
Morphology
theology = theo + logy
The word is built from classical combining forms meaning roughly 'God' + 'study', but the academic sense is specialized and not fully predictable for an average learner.
Etymology
Theology comes from Greek parts theo- ('god') and -logy ('study'), the same -logy you see in biology or geology, so it literally means 'study of God' and explains why theology is the academic study of religious beliefs and God's nature.
