the force that isn't there, invented so spinning things make sense to you.
means an apparent outward push felt by objects moving in a curved path, actually just inertia trying to go straight.
from from latin centrum (center) and fugere (to flee) — coined by huygens in the 1600s to describe things fleeing the center, even though nothing's really fleeing at all.
