Cinemize

/ˈsɪnɪmaɪz/ verb

Definition

To convert something into a movie or film; to adapt for cinema.

Etymology

From 'cine' (cinema) plus '-mize' (a variant suffix similar to '-ize'), meaning 'to make into.' This is essentially a shorter form of 'cinematize.'

Kelly Says

Both 'cinemize' and 'cinematize' mean the same thing, but 'cinemize' is shorter and snappier—language is always evolving, and sometimes people prefer the punchier version!
