Etymology
Borrowed via German Tragödie and Latin tragoedia from Ancient Greek τραγῳδία (tragōidía, “tragedy”), a derivation from τραγῳδός (tragōidós, “tragic performer”), apparently a compound of τράγος (trágos, “goat”) + ἀοιδός (aoidós, “singer”). See: German Nouns '
Tragödie', Latin Nouns '
tragoedia', Ancient Greek Nouns '
τραγῳδία'.
