Clear derivation from 'vegetarian' (a person or adjective) plus the productive suffix '-ism' meaning a practice, belief, or movement.

Vegetarianism comes from the simple word vegetable, meaning 'plant food', and the ending -ism, meaning 'a belief or practice'. So vegetarianism is the practice of eating plants rather than meat, which explains its meaning today.
