"etymology_text": "From Latin adulterātus (“(adjective) adulterated; of mixed descent; (participle) adulterated, corrupted, defiled, polluted; committed adultery with; (figuratively) counterfeited, falsified”). Adulterātus is the perfect passive participle of adulterō (“to adulterate, corrupt, defile, pollute; to commit adultery with; (figuratively) to counterfeit”); adulterō is derived from ad- (“to, in the direction of”) + alter (“other”) + -ō (verb-forming suffix), literally “to go after someone else”. Equivalent to adultery + -ate (adjective-forming suffix).",
