Etymology of ANTIPATHIZED

The word "antipathized" is derived from the root word "antipathy" combined with the suffix "-ize".

"Antipathy" originated from the Greek word "antipatheia", which can be broken down into "anti" meaning "against" and "pathos" meaning "suffering" or "emotion". Therefore, "antipathy" originally meant "feeling against" or a strong dislike or aversion towards something or someone.

The suffix "-ize" is derived from the Greek suffix "-izein", which means "to cause, to make or to become". It is commonly used to form verbs denoting the process or action of something.

As a result, when the suffix "-ize" is added to "antipathy", it creates the verb form "antipathize", which means the act of feeling or expressing strong dislike, aversion, or hostility towards something or someone.
