Etymology
Since 1922, derived from Czech robot, in part through English robot. The Czech was coined by Karel Čapek from robota (“serfdom”), whence come also German Robot (“serfdom”), roboten (“to work as serf, toil”). In fact, Middle High German already had a noun robater (“serf”), but this was not continued. It is possible, however, that the German translator derived Roboter from the verb roboten + -er (rather than directly from the Czech noun + suffix). See: Czech Nouns '
robot', English Nouns '
robot'.
