A formal praise or eulogy; an expression of commendation (archaic or formal variant of 'eulogy').
Directly from Latin 'eulogium,' which is a Latinized form of Greek 'eulogia.' This version preserves the Latin-derived form that was used in formal and ecclesiastical English.
Latin forms like 'eulogium' show how educated English speakers in earlier centuries drew from Latin to create more formal or prestigious-sounding words—a habit that still influences scientific and academic terminology.
