Etymology of PHONEMICISE

The word "phonemicise" is formed by combining two root words: "phoneme" and "icise".

1. "Phoneme" comes from the Greek word "phōnēma", which means "sound" or "voice". In linguistics, a phoneme refers to the smallest unit of sound that distinguishes one word from another in a particular language. It represents the basic building block of a language's phonological system.

2. "-Icise" is a suffix that means "to make" or "to become" and is derived from the Latin verb "-cīdere", meaning "to cut" or "to make".

When these two elements are combined, "phonemicise" is formed, which means "to make or become phonemic".
