The English word "nitrogen" comes from the French nitrogène, which was coined in 1790 by French chemist Jean-Antoine Chaptal. It in turn comes from the Greek "nitron," meaning "sodium carbonate" and from the French "-gène," "producing" derived from Greek "-genes," meaining "producer," or"begetter".
