Formulize → It is formed from "formula" (from Latin *formula*, meaning a rule or pattern) and "-ize" (a suffix used to indicate the process of making or becoming). The word "formulize" means to make something into a specific form or to create a formula for it.
Think of creating a 'rule' or 'pattern' ('formula') and then 'making' it happen ('-ize'). This helps you remember that 'formulize' means to create a specific form or formula.
