different between canonize vs sainthood
canonize
English
Etymology
From Late Middle English canonizen (“to declare as a saint; to appoint to an ecclesiastical office”), from Old French canonisier (modern French canoniser (“to canonize”)), or from its etymon Medieval Latin, Late Latin can?niz?re, the present active infinitive of Latin can?niz? (“to recognize as a saint, canonize; to declare as authoritative or official”), from Latin can?n (“measuring line; (figurative) precept, rule, canon; authorized catalogue”) + -iz? (suffix forming verbs). Can?n is derived from Ancient Greek ????? (kan?n, “measuring rod; general principle, norm, rule; model, paradigm”); the further etymology is uncertain, but it may be related to ?????? (kánn?, “giant reed (Arundo donax); reed mat”), ultimately from Sumerian ???????? (gi.na). The English word is analysable as canon (“general principle, rule; authoritative group of works; catalogue of saints canonized in the Roman Catholic Church”) +? -ize.
