词源

From Lusitanian + -ize, ultimately from Latin Lusitania (“pre-Roman and Roman Portugal”), used archaistically in New Latin and English in reference to modern Portugal. Partially formed on the model of more common terms like gallicize and partially as a calque of Portuguese lusitanizar, from lusitano (“Lusitanian, Portuguese”) + -izar.
