Philonizev.

Brit.

/ˈfʌɪlənʌɪz/, U.S.

/ˈfaɪləˌnaɪz/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin Philonizare.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin Philonizare to philosophize after the manner of Philo Judaeus (1570 in the passage translated in quot. 1610 at main sense; 1520 in Erasmus as Philonissare ) < Philon- , Philo (see Philonian adj.¹) + -izare -ize suffix. Compare Middle French philoniser (1599 or earlier in a translation of the classical proverbial phrase).The proverbial phrase apparently originates in Byzantine Greek: ἢ Πλάτων ϕιλωνίζει ἢ Φίλων πλατωνίζει; compare post-classical Latin aut Plato Philonissat, aut Philo Platonissat (1520 in Erasmus).

Now rare.

intransitive. To philosophize after the manner of Philo Judaeus. Only in proverbial phrase either Philo Platonizes or Plato Philonizes and variants. Cf. Platonize v. 1.
