Morphology
ergonomic = ergonomics (transparent) = ergonom + ic
Formed by adding the adjective-forming suffix '-ic' to the noun 'ergonomics', so the meaning 'relating to ergonomics' is directly predictable.
Etymology
Ergonomic comes from the Greek roots ergon ('work') and nomos ('rule' or 'law'), and the erg part is like the start of energy ('power' or 'work'). So ergonomic means something made to fit the way we work, to make tasks easier and more comfortable.
