Root Explanation

Allegorizer → It is formed from "allegory" (from Greek "allegoria", meaning speaking otherwise or figurative representation) and "-izer" (a suffix meaning to make or to cause to be). The word "allegorizer" refers to someone who creates or interprets allegories, thus making figurative representations.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who 'makes' ('-izer') a 'figurative representation' ('allegory') — that's why an allegorizer is someone who creates or interprets allegories.
