to arrange, coordinate, or put in order; to form or establish a group for a common purpose.
From Latin 'organum' (musical instrument, tool), from Greek 'organon' (instrument, tool). The word evolved through French and entered English in the 1600s, meaning to structure systematically like parts of a body or machine.
The word 'organise' comes from 'organ'—the medical kind! Just as organs in a body work together as an organized system, organizing anything means making separate parts work together as one functional whole!
