(regularize)
standardize
Etymology
'regularizability' originates from the English verb 'regularize' (itself formed from Latin 'regularis' via Old French/Medieval Latin) combined with the suffix '-ability' (from Latin 'habilitas' via Old French), where 'regular-' originally meant 'rule, straight' and '-ize' meant 'to make'.
'regularizability' changed from the Modern English verb 'regularize' + the nominalizing suffix '-ability' and eventually became the technical noun 'regularizability' used in mathematics, statistics, and computer science.
Initially, elements of the root meant 'to make regular' (from Latin 'regularis'), but with the addition of '-ability' the meaning evolved to denote 'the capacity or suitability for being made regular' rather than the action of making regular.
