Morphology

sentimentize = sentiment (semi-transparent) = sentiment + ize

Formally derived from 'sentiment' + '-ize', but the specialized computational meaning 'assign a sentiment label' is domain-specific and may not be obvious to general learners.

Etymology

Sentimentize in data work also builds on sentiment ('feeling') and -ize ('make' or 'do'), and it means to use a computer tool to give a piece of text a 'feeling' label like positive, negative, or neutral, so to sentimentize text is to automatically say what feeling it shows.
