The term 'pornography' comes from the Greek words πόρνη (pornē, 'prostitute') and γράφειν (graphein, 'record, write, illustrate') and the suffix - ία (-ia, ' status, property, place of '), therefore having the meaning of 'description or illustration of prostitutes or prostitution'. However, there is to say that the term is of recent onset, as in the ancient Greece never used the word pornography, and found most ancient use dates back to the late 1800's in French.

Etimología.
El término «pornografía» procede de las palabras griegas πόρνη (pórnē, 'prostituta') y γράφειν (gráphein, 'grabar, escribir, ilustrar') y el sufijo -ία (-ía, 'estado de, propiedad de, lugar de'), teniendo por lo tanto el significado de «descripción o ilustración de las prostitutas o de la prostitución». Sin embargo, hay que decir que el término es de aparición reciente, pues en la Antigua Grecia nunca se usó la palabra pornografía, y el uso más antiguo constatado data de la década de 1800 en francés.
