masticatev.

Brit.

/ˈmastᵻkeɪt/, U.S.

/ˈmæstəˌkeɪt/

Forms: 1500s– masticate, 1600s mastigate.

Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element. Or (ii) formed within English, by back-formation. Etymons: Latin masticat- , masticare ; mastication n.

Etymology: Either < post-classical Latin masticat-, past participial stem of masticare to chew (4th cent.; < ancient Greek μαστιχᾶν to gnash the teeth), or back-formation < mastication n. (compare -ate suffix³). Ancient Greek μαστιχᾶν , related to ancient Greek μάσταξ jaw (see mastax n.), is attested only in Hesiod and a late gloss; it is likely to have had popular rather than literary currency, and the Latin verb derived from it may likewise have been in use long before its first literary attestation.Post-classical Latin masticare > Old French, Middle French maschier (c1190), Middle French mascher (15th cent.; French mâcher : compare papier mâché n.; also Middle French mastiguer (c1370), Middle French, French mastiquer (1425)), Old Occitan mastegar (13th cent.), maschar (14th cent., < French), Italian masticare (14th cent.), Spanish mascar (1490; also masticar, mastigar (beginning of the 17th cent.)), Portuguese mascar (15th cent.; also mastigar (14th cent.)).

a. transitive. To reduce (food) to a pulp with the teeth; to grind up by, or as if by, chewing.
