Etymology of VERNACULARISE

The word "vernacularise" is derived from the noun "vernacular" and the suffix "-ise".

The noun "vernacular" is derived from the Latin word "vernaculus", which means "belonging to a household slave" or "native to a particular country". Over time, "vernacular" came to refer to the language or dialect spoken by the common people in a certain region or country, as opposed to formal or literary language.

The suffix "-ise" is a common suffix in English that is used to form verbs from nouns or adjectives, indicating the action of making or becoming something. In this case, "-ise" is added to "vernacular" to create the verb "vernacularise", which means to adapt or translate something into the vernacular language, or to make something more accessible or understandable to ordinary people.
