About This Root
From Greek harmonia (fitting together, agreement, concord), from harmos (joint). Primarily musical in English — harmony, harmonic, harmonica, harmonize, philharmonic — but retains the broader sense of pleasing arrangement. The concept of parts fitting together links music to its original mechanical meaning.
