== Etymology ==
''Acinetobacter'' is a compound word from scientific Greek [α + κίνητο + βακτηρ(ία)], meaning nonmotile rod. The first element ''acineto-'' appears as a somewhat [[baroque]] rendering of the Greek [[morpheme]] ακίνητο-, commonly [[transliteration|transliterated]] in English is ''akineto-'', but actually stems from the French ''cinetique'' and was adopted directly into English.{{cn|date=August 2022}} Nevertheless, the French word also originates from the Greek privative α + κίνησις (motion) confirming the same origin from a different path.
