Etymology
'non-synchronization' originates from the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' and the word 'synchronization,' which comes from Greek 'synchronos,' where 'syn-' meant 'together' and 'chronos' meant 'time.'
'synchronization' changed from the Greek word 'synchronos' and eventually became the modern English word 'synchronization.'
Initially, it meant 'occurring at the same time,' but 'non-synchronization' evolved to mean 'not occurring at the same time.'
