Etymology of INFURIATE

The word "infuriate" has its origins in the Latin language. It comes from the Latin verb "infuriare", which means "to enrage" or "to make furious". The prefix "in-" denotes intensification, and "furiare" comes from the noun "furor", meaning "rage" or "fury". So, when combined, "infuriare" gives the meaning of intensifying or intensifying someone's rage or fury. Over time, this Latin word was borrowed into English, and with slight changes in spelling and pronunciation, it transformed into "infuriate", retaining its original meaning.
