词源
from French -graphe, based on Greek graphos 'written, writing'.
-graph|grɑːf, -æ-|repr. F. -graphe, L. -graphus, Gr. -γραϕος. The Greek termination was used to form adjectives, sometimes in the passive sense of ‘written’, e.g. αὐτόγραϕος written with one's own hand, χειρόγραϕος written with the hand; sometimes in the active sense, ‘that writes, delineates, or describes’, chiefly used absol. as ns., ‘one who writes, delineates, or describes’: e.g. ζωγράϕος a painter from life, βιβλιογράϕος a writer of books, γεωγράϕος a delineator of the earth, a geographer. Many of the passive formations in -γραϕος have been anglicized, being for the most part used both as adjs. and ns., as in autograph, chirograph, holograph. These words have been imitated in a few modern ns. formed on Gr. types, as lithograph, photograph; and these in turn have been imitated in hybrid formations, such as pictograph; jocular nonce-words, like hurrygraph for ‘a hurried sketch’, are occasionally met with. The Gr. active formations in -γράϕος, where they have been anglicized, take in mod.Eng. the ending -grapher, which is used also for new formations denoting persons (exceptions, such as calligraph, are rare). The great bulk of the words in -graph is composed of technical terms of very recent invention, mostly formed on Gr. elements, and expressing the general sense of ‘that which writes, portrays, or records’, as actinograph, heliograph, hygrograph, ideograph, phonograph, seismograph, telegraph, etc.
-graph
modern word-forming element meaning "instrument for recording; that which marks or describes; something written," from Greek -graphos "-writing, -writer" (as in autographos "written with one's own hand"), from graphe "writing, the art of writing, a writing," from graphein "to write, express by written characters," earlier "to draw, represent by lines drawn" (see -graphy). Adopted widely (Dutch -graaf, German -graph, French -graphe, Spanish -grafo). Related: -grapher; -graphic; -graphical.
-graph /grɑ:f, graf/ suffix.
ORIGIN: from or after French -graphe from Latin -graphus from Greek -graphos written, writing.
Forming nouns with the sense ‘something written, drawn, recorded, etc., in a specified way,’ as autograph, photograph, pictograph, etc., or with the sense ‘an instrument that records something or by some means,’ as heliograph, seismograph, telegraph, etc.
