Relating to or characterized by questioning, inquiry, or the use of questions as a rhetorical or philosophical method.
From Greek erotētikos, derived from erōtēsis 'questioning.' The term entered English philosophical vocabulary in the 17th century through translations of classical and medieval logic texts.
Erotetic logic is an actual field of study where philosophers analyze how questions work differently than statements—it turns out questions open up whole new ways of understanding knowledge and truth.
