DEPUTISE Meaning and Definition

1. Deputise is a verb that refers to the act of appointing or designating someone as a deputy or substitute. This term is commonly used in a professional or organizational context, particularly in situations where an individual temporarily assumes the responsibilities or duties of another person.

   When someone is deputised, they are entrusted with the authority and power to act on behalf of someone else, usually in their absence or inability to perform their role. The purpose of deputising is to ensure continuity of work or to maintain the functioning of a system, even when the primary individual is unavailable.

   The act of deputising involves transferring specific responsibilities, tasks, or decision-making abilities to the deputy. This may include temporarily assuming managerial or supervisory tasks, representing someone in meetings or events, making decisions in their name, or carrying out their day-to-day duties. The deputised individual is expected to act with the same level of competence, professionalism, and adherence to rules and guidelines as the person they are substituting.

   Deputising can occur in various contexts, such as in government, corporate settings, educational institutions, or sports teams. It is a means of maintaining efficiency and ensuring that important functions are not disrupted due to the absence or incapacity of a key individual.

Etymology of DEPUTISE

The word "deputise" can trace its origins back to the Latin language. It is derived from the Latin word "deputare", which means "to assign" or "to delegate". This Latin word is a combination of the prefix "de", meaning "down" or "away", and the verb "putare", meaning "to reckon" or "to value". Thus, "deputare" suggests the act of valuing or considering someone for an assignment or delegation. Over time, this Latin term evolved into Old French as "deputer", and eventually entered the English language as "deputise" in the early 19th century.
