Inherited from Middle French democratique (“relating to democracy, democratic”), learned borrowing from Late Latin democraticus (“relating to democracy, democratic; democrat”), from Ancient Greek δημοκρᾰτῐκός (dēmokrătĭkós, “of or for democracy; favouring or suited for democracy”), from δημοκρᾰτῐ́ᾱ (dēmokrătĭ́ā, “democracy”) + -ῐκός (-ĭkós, suffix with the sense ‘relating’ to forming adjectives). The French word is analysable as démocratie + -ique.
