Etymology of DELIQUATED

The word "deliquated" has its roots in the Latin word "deliquatus", which is the past participle of the verb "deliquare". "Deliquare" is derived from the prefix "de-", meaning "down", and the verb "liquare", meaning "to melt or dissolve". Therefore, "deliquatus" and its derivative "deliquated" originally referred to something that had melted or dissolved completely. However, over time, the word's meaning has evolved to also include the act of becoming liquid or becoming soft or weak due to the absorption of moisture from the air.
