vt. past tense of "computerize": to equip with or adapt to computer technology
The word "computerized" stems from "compute," derived from Latin computare ("to calculate"), combined with the agent suffix "-er" (indicating a tool or person performing an action). The verb-forming suffix "-ize" (from Greek -izein) transforms nouns into verbs, and "-ed" marks the past participle. The term evolved in the mid-20th century to describe processes or systems adapted for computer control, reflecting technological advancement.
