Aggenerate

/əˈdʒɛnəreɪt/ verb

Definition

An archaic or rare verb meaning to generate, produce, or bring into being; to create or give rise to.

Etymology

From Latin 'agenerare' (to produce), combining 'ad-' (to) and 'generare' (to generate, create). This word is largely obsolete in modern English.

Kelly Says

This word is so archaic it barely appears outside historical texts—modern English just uses 'generate' or 'create' instead, leaving aggenerate as a linguistic relic.
