Emotionalize

/ɪˈmoʊʃənəˌlaɪz/ verb

Definition

To express something in an emotional way or to make something more emotional rather than rational.

Etymology

From emotion (Latin emotio, 'disturbance') + -alize (suffix meaning 'to make or become'). Emerged in the 19th century as psychological discourse grew, combining the noun emotion with the productive suffix -ize to create a verb meaning to infuse with emotion.

Kelly Says

This word shows how English easily converts feelings into verbs—once we had a word for emotion, we immediately created emotionalize to describe the act of doing it. It reveals how language itself can become more emotional as society grows more expressive.
