utilisation
UK: ˌjuːtɪlaɪˈzeɪʃən | US: ˌjuːtələˈzeɪʃən
n. the action of making practical and effective use of something
The word "utilisation" derives from the French utiliser (to use), which traces back to the Latin uti (to use). The suffix "-isation" (or "-ization" in American English) converts the verb into a noun denoting the process or result of an action. The morpheme "util" preserves its core meaning of usefulness, while "-isation" systematically forms abstract nouns in English, reflecting the word's logical construction from Latin roots through French influence.
