μᾰθημᾰτῐκός • (mathēmatikós) m (feminine μᾰθημᾰτῐκή, neuter μᾰθημᾰτῐκόν); first/second declension

1. scientific, esp. mathematical
   • 384 BCE – 322 BCE, Aristotle, Metaphysics 992b.1:

     ἔτι δὲ τὴν ὑποκειμένην οὐσίαν ὡς ὕλην μαθηματικωτέραν ἄν τις ὑπολάβοι

     éti dè tḕn hupokeiménēn ousían hōs húlēn mathēmatikōtéran án tis hupoláboi

     Further, one might regard the substance which they make the material substrate as too mathematical.

   1. (substantive, masculine) mathematician
   2. (substantive, feminine) mathematics
      • 384 BCE – 322 BCE, Aristotle, Metaphysics 1026a:

        ἀλλ᾽ ἔστι καὶ ἡ μαθηματικὴ θεωρητική: ἀλλ᾽ εἰ ἀκινήτων καὶ χωριστῶν ἐστί

        all᾽ ésti kaì hē mathēmatikḕ theōrētikḗ: all᾽ ei akinḗtōn kaì khōristôn estí

        And mathematics is also speculative; but it is not clear at present whether its objects are immutable and separable from matter.

2. astronomical
   • 46 CE – 120 CE, Plutarch, Moralia 2.974f
   • 160 CE – 210 CE, Sextus Empiricus, Against the Mathematicians 5.104
3. astrological
   • 300 CE – 400 CE, Sallustius, On the Gods and the Cosmos 9

• Latin: mathēmaticus, mathēmatica
  • English: mathematical, mathematics

μᾰθημᾰτῐκός • (mathēmatikós) m (genitive μᾰθημᾰτῐκοῦ); second declension

1. mathematician
   • 384 BCE – 322 BCE, Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics 1142a.17:

     ἐπεὶ καὶ τοῦτ᾽ ἄν τις σκέψαιτο, διὰ τί δὴ μαθηματικὸς μὲν παῖς γένοιτ᾽ ἄν, σοφὸς δ᾽ ἢ φυσικὸς οὔ.

     epeì kaì toût᾽ án tis sképsaito, dià tí dḕ mathēmatikòs mèn paîs génoit᾽ án, sophòs d᾽ ḕ phusikòs oú.

     One might indeed further inquire why it is that, though a boy can be a mathematician, he cannot be a metaphysician or a natural philosopher.

2. (Pythagoreanism) advanced student
   • 234 CE – 305 CE, Porphyry, VP 37
   • 245 CE – 325 CE, Iamblichus, On the Pythagorean Way of Life 18.81
