The study or science of non-living matter or things that lack organic organization.
From 'anorganism' + '-logy' (Greek 'logos,' meaning study or science). The term combines the concept of non-organized matter with the academic suffix for formal study.
'Anorganology' is a word that almost defines itself—it sounds like it should be a real science, but in practice, chemistry, geology, and physics already do this job much better, which is why 'anorganology' exists in dictionaries but almost nowhere else.
