Hibernicize

/haɪˈbɜːrnɪsaɪz/ verb

Definition

To make something Irish in character, style, or expression, or to convert into an Irish form or custom.

Etymology

From 'Hibernia' (Latin for Ireland) plus '-ize' (verb suffix meaning to make or become). The term developed in the 19th century to describe linguistic and cultural transformation.

Kelly Says

When Irish immigrants to America adapted English words and phrases to sound Irish, they were essentially hibernicizing them—language constantly gets flavored by the cultures that speak it.
