Root Explanation

Capsulize → It is formed from "capsula" (from Latin, meaning small box or container) and the suffix "-ize" (meaning to make or to become). The word "capsulize" means to make something into a small container or to summarize it succinctly, as if putting it into a capsule.

Memory Tip

Think of a 'small box' ('capsula') that holds important information — that's why to 'capsulize' means to summarize or condense something into a compact form.
