Adjective

IPA: /ɪˈɹeɪdɪət/ [General-American, Received-Pronunciation] Audio: LL-Q1860 (eng)-Vealhurl-irradiate.wav [Southern-England], LL-Q1860 (eng)-Vealhurl-irradiate2.wav [Southern-England] Forms: more irradiate [comparative], most irradiate [superlative], or poetic [literary]
Rhymes: -eɪdɪət Etymology: PIE word *h₁én The verb is a learned borrowing from Medieval Latin irradiātus + English -ate (suffix forming verbs denoting ‘to act in the specified manner’). Irradiātus is the perfect passive participle of irradiō, from Latin ir- (a variant of in- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’)) + radiō (“to cause to radiate, irradiate; to emit beams, radiate”) (from radius (“ray of light; rod, staff; spoke of a wheel”) (further etymology uncertain; possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *reh₁t- (“beam; pole; post”)) + -ō (suffix forming regular first-conjugation verbs)). The adjective is derived from Late Middle English irradiate (“illuminated, shining”), borrowed from Medieval Latin irradiātus (see above) + Middle English -at (suffix forming past participles of verbs). The adjective is attested earlier than the verb. The English word is analysable as ir- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’) + radiate.

  "etymology_text": "PIE word\n *h₁én\nThe verb is a learned borrowing from Medieval Latin irradiātus + English -ate (suffix forming verbs denoting ‘to act in the specified manner’). Irradiātus is the perfect passive participle of irradiō, from Latin ir- (a variant of in- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’)) + radiō (“to cause to radiate, irradiate; to emit beams, radiate”) (from radius (“ray of light; rod, staff; spoke of a wheel”) (further etymology uncertain; possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *reh₁t- (“beam; pole; post”)) + -ō (suffix forming regular first-conjugation verbs)).\nThe adjective is derived from Late Middle English irradiate (“illuminated, shining”), borrowed from Medieval Latin irradiātus (see above) + Middle English -at (suffix forming past participles of verbs). The adjective is attested earlier than the verb.\nThe English word is analysable as ir- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’) + radiate.",

Irradiātus is the perfect passive participle of irradiō, from Latin ir- (a variant of in- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’)) + radiō (“to cause to radiate, irradiate; to emit beams, radiate”) (from radius (“ray of light; rod, staff; spoke of a wheel”) (further etymology uncertain; possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *reh₁t- (“beam; pole; post”)) + -ō (suffix forming regular first-conjugation verbs)).\nThe adjective is derived from Late Middle English irradiate (“illuminated, shining”), borrowed from Medieval Latin irradiātus (see above) + Middle English -at (suffix forming past participles of verbs). The adjective is attested earlier than the verb.\nThe English word is analysable as ir- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’) + radiate.",

  "etymology_text": "PIE word\n *h₁én\nThe verb is a learned borrowing from Medieval Latin irradiātus + English -ate (suffix forming verbs denoting ‘to act in the specified manner’). Irradiātus is the perfect passive participle of irradiō, from Latin ir- (a variant of in- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’)) + radiō (“to cause to radiate, irradiate; to emit beams, radiate”) (from radius (“ray of light; rod, staff; spoke of a wheel”) (further etymology uncertain; possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *reh₁t- (“beam; pole; post”)) + -ō (suffix forming regular first-conjugation verbs)).\nThe adjective is derived from Late Middle English irradiate (“illuminated, shining”), borrowed from Medieval Latin irradiātus (see above) + Middle English -at (suffix forming past participles of verbs). The adjective is attested earlier than the verb.\nThe English word is analysable as ir- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’) + radiate.",

  "etymology_text": "PIE word\n *h₁én\nThe verb is a learned borrowing from Medieval Latin irradiātus + English -ate (suffix forming verbs denoting ‘to act in the specified manner’). Irradiātus is the perfect passive participle of irradiō, from Latin ir- (a variant of in- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’)) + radiō (“to cause to radiate, irradiate; to emit beams, radiate”) (from radius (“ray of light; rod, staff; spoke of a wheel”) (further etymology uncertain; possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *reh₁t- (“beam; pole; post”)) + -ō (suffix forming regular first-conjugation verbs)).\nThe adjective is derived from Late Middle English irradiate (“illuminated, shining”), borrowed from Medieval Latin irradiātus (see above) + Middle English -at (suffix forming past participles of verbs). The adjective is attested earlier than the verb.\nThe English word is analysable as ir- (prefix meaning ‘against; into; on, upon’) + radiate.",
