To conduct a funeral for someone; to perform funeral rites or ceremonies.
From Latin 'funerari' (to bury) derived from 'funus' (funeral), plus the infinitive suffix '-ate.' Rare or archaic formation.
This is an extremely old-fashioned verb—modern English just says 'hold a funeral,' but 'funerate' sounds like something from a 17th-century funeral parlor!
