Δείκνυμι (diknimi) is an ancient Greek verb and it means 'I show', 'I present'. Para is a preposition meaning 'beside'. The act of putting two or more things side by side to compare them or to make a point is called παραδειγματισμός (paradigmatismos) The noun came to England through France in the late 16th century and stayed intact.
