Etymology
The word temporalization comes from temporal, which goes back to the old Latin word tempus meaning 'time', and the ending -ization meaning 'making' or 'process'. So, temporalization is the process of 'placing or defining something in time', which is why it means arranging or describing things by their time or order.
