How Domesticated
Surface Forms
Morphology
domesticated = domesticate (transparent) = domestic + ate + ed
Formed by adding the verb-forming suffix '-ate' to 'domestic' to make 'domesticate', then the participial '-ed'; this derivation follows regular English morphology.
Etymology
Domesticated comes from the Latin root domus which means 'house', so it originally meant 'of the house'. That image helps remember the meaning: a domesticated animal is one made to live close to people and farms, not in the wild.
