English theory + -etic, from Latin theōrēticus, from Ancient Greek θεωρητικός (theōrētikós).
adjective more theoretic · most theoretic · theoretick
- Concerned with theories or hypotheses rather than with practical matters. We shall, therefore, only very humbly submit whether the whole statement be not rather too theoretic and somewhat too darkly adumbrated in ambiguous phraseology for plain, uncollegian understandings.
- Existing only in theory, not proven in reality.
