Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἐθίζω, the concept of habituation can be related to Hebrew words like לָמַד (lamad, Strong's 3925), meaning "to learn" or "to teach," which involves the process of becoming accustomed to knowledge or practice.

Usage: The verb ἐθίζω (ethizó) is used to describe the process of becoming accustomed to or habituated in a particular practice or behavior. It implies a gradual development of a habit or custom through repeated action or exposure.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, the concept of ethos was significant in shaping moral character and societal norms. The process of habituation was seen as essential in the development of virtues and ethical behavior. This understanding of forming habits was integral to both personal development and communal life in the Greco-Roman world.
