Impregn is derived from the Latin 'impraegnare', which is formed from 'in-' (meaning into) and 'praegnare' (meaning to make pregnant). The word describes the act of making someone or something pregnant, or to cause to conceive.
Think of 'into' ('in-') and 'making pregnant' ('praegnare') to remember that 'impregn' means to cause to conceive.
