der Computer, –
computer
Ein elektronisches Gerät, das Daten verarbeitet, Informationen speichert und Programme ausführt.
The German word "Computer" mirrors the English word "computer," both of which refer to an electronic device that is used for processing, storing, and retrieving data as well as for executing programs. This term does not directly derive from other specific German words that indicate its individual meaning, as it has been adopted into the German language as is from English, where it originated from the Latin "computare" meaning "to calculate." In German, the term "Rechner" (meaning "calculator" or "computer") can be used synonymously with "Computer".
