UK: ˌpʌblɪˈkeɪʃn | US: ˌpʌblɪˈkeɪʃn
n. the act of making information or work available to the public
n. a printed work (e.g., book, journal) issued for public distribution
Derived from Latin publicare ("to make public"), via Old French publicacion. The root public traces back to Latin publicus ("of the people"), combining populus ("people") with the suffix -ic. The suffix -ation denotes an action or process, turning the verb "publish" into a noun describing the result. The word reflects a logical progression: from the concept of "people" to the act of disseminating information to them.
