Curiologics

/ˌkjʊəriəˈlɒdʒɪks/ noun

Definition

The systematic study, theory, or body of knowledge concerning curiosities and the principles governing their collection and classification.

Etymology

Derived from 'curiology' with the suffix '-ics' indicating a field of study or systematic body of knowledge (like 'physics' or 'mathematics').

Kelly Says

Adding '-ics' transforms a verb-based idea into an academic discipline—'curiologics' sounds like something you'd get a PhD in, even though it's really just 'studying weird stuff professionally.'
