Explanation:

The term came from the classical Latin electrum, amber, from the Greek ἤλεκτρον (elektron), amber. The origin of the Greek word is unknown, but there is speculation that it might have come from a Phoenician word elēkrŏn, meaning 'shining light'.

1600: William Gilbert(England) first coined the term "electricity" from "elektron," the Greek word for amber. Gilbert wrote about the electrification of many substances. He was also the first person to use the terms electric force, magnetic pole, and electric attraction.

The name electricity is coined from the Greek word elektron meaning amber. There are two kinds of charges. If we say that a body is charged, it means body have excess or deficit of electrons.
