Etymology: "Systematisers" is the plural of "systematiser," a word built in English by adding the agent suffix "-er" to "systematise." The suffix itself has a long road: it descends from Latin "-arius," passed through Old French "-ier," and reached Middle English as "-er," with the same ending in Old English "-ere" running alongside it. So a systematiser is, in the most literal sense, one who systematises. The verb it rests on, "systematise," means to arrange things into a system, that is, into an organised set of parts bound by a common principle. The Greek root "systēma" (a whole put together from parts) gives the word its core sense, and the English verb follows the familiar pattern of Greek-derived words ending in "-ize" or "-ise." Because the noun is a transparent formation, its meaning follows directly from the verb: anyone who builds or imposes such order.
