Editing Contemplation (section)

==Etymology==
The word ''contemplation'' is derived from the [[Latin]] word ''contemplatio'', ultimately from the Latin word ''templum'', a piece of ground consecrated for the taking of auspices, or a building for worship. The latter either derives from the [[Proto-Indo-European language|Proto-Indo-European]] root  ''*tem-'' ("to cut"), on notion of "place reserved or cut out", or from the root *''temp''- ("to stretch, string"), thus referring to a cleared (measured) space in front of an altar.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=temple|title=temple {{!}} Search Online Etymology Dictionary|website=Etymonline|access-date=2020-03-17}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|last=Vaan|first=Michiel de|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ecZ1DwAAQBAJ|title=Etymological Dictionary of Latin and the other Italic Languages|date=2018|publisher=Brill|isbn=978-90-04-16797-1|pages=610–611|language=en}}</ref> The Latin word ''contemplatio'' was used to translate the [[Greek language|Greek]] word ''θεωρία'' (''[[theoria|theōría]]'').
