Morphology
chronology = chron + ology
The word is formed from classical morphemes meaning roughly 'time-study', but the specific sense 'ordered arrangement or record of events' is only partly predictable for an average learner.
Etymology
Chronology comes from the Greek chronos, meaning 'time', and it shares the same root as synchronize and chronicle. So a chronology is a record or list of events arranged by when they happened.
