aluminize

/əˈɫuməˌnaɪz/ verb

US, Canada, and Oxford British English standard spelling of aluminise.

Word Origin 'Aluminize' means to coat or treat with aluminum. The root is Latin 'alumen', meaning 'alum', a bitter salt used since ancient times. The '-ize' suffix from Greek means 'to make or treat with'. So aluminize is to make something aluminous. The same root gives us 'aluminum' (the metal), 'alumina' (aluminum oxide), and 'alum' (the original salt). The PIE root '*al-' is related to bitter taste.
