Morphology
lactate = lactic (opaque) = lact + ate
The noun refers to a technical chemical salt/ester; the meaning is specialized and not straightforwardly inferable by a B1 learner from 'lactic' + '-ate'.
Etymology
Lactate comes from the Latin root lac meaning 'milk'. Scientists first found lactic acid in sour milk, so a lactate is a salt or form of that 'milk' acid found in the body.
