Etymology

The French noun *publication* derives from the Latin *publicatio*, the act of making public, itself a nominalized form of the verb *publicare* “to make public, proclaim.” *Publicare* combines *publicus* “public” (from *populus* “people”) with the suffix *‑are* indicating an action. The word entered Old French as *publication* in the 16th century, preserving the sense of a formally issued text or notice.
