Common Misspellings for ALCOHOLISE

The word "alcoholize" (alternative spelling "alcoholise") is derived from the noun "alcohol", which itself has an interesting etymology. The term "alcohol" can be traced back to the Arabic word "al-kuḥūl" (الكحول) meaning "a powdered antimony used as a cosmetic to darken the eyelids". This term entered Medieval Latin as "alcohol" or "alcoholus", referring specifically to a powdered form of antimony.

Over time, the meaning of "alcohol" expanded to include various substances with intoxicating properties. In the early 18th century, it began to specifically refer to "ethanol", the chemical compound found in alcoholic beverages. From there, the verb "alcoholize" was formed by adding the suffix "-ize" to "alcohol", indicating the process of making something alcoholic or adding alcohol to it.
