To convert or cause to become acetic acid or vinegar through chemical or biological processes.
From Latin 'acetum' (vinegar) + '-fy' (English suffix meaning 'to make or cause to become'). This combines the Latin root with a Germanic suffix to create a verb meaning 'to make into acetic acid.'
Acetify is what saved military supplies for centuries—soldiers and sailors survived long voyages because 'quick vinegar' (acetified alcohol) preserved food and prevented scurvy, making acetic acid a weapon as important as gunpowder!
