Definition

Etymology
The word "el axioma" comes from the Greek 'axioma,' meaning 'that which is thought worthy or fit' or 'a self-evident truth.' This term was adopted into Latin as 'axioma' and later entered Spanish with the same philosophical meaning. Did you know that in ancient times, axioms were considered obvious truths so basic that they did not need explanation?
