Root Explanation

Formularize → It is formed from "formula" (from Latin *formula*, meaning a small form or a rule) and "-ize" (meaning to make or to cause to become). The word "formularize" means to make something into a formula or to express it in a formalized way.

Memory Tip

Think of creating a 'small form' ('formula') and then 'making' it ('-ize') into something more structured. This helps you remember that 'formularize' means to turn something into a formal structure.
