malleatev.

Brit. /ˈmalɪeɪt/, U.S. /ˈmælieɪt/
Origin: Either (i) a borrowing from Latin. Or (ii) a borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element. Etymons: Latin malleare ; Latin malleus , -ate suffix3.
Etymology: Either < malleat- , past participial stem (compare -ate suffix3) of post-classical Latin malleare (from late 12th cent. in British sources; frequently spec. of metalworking), or independently < classical Latin malleus hammer (see malleus n.) + -ate suffix3, after malleable adj., malleation n. Compare classical Latin malleātus hammered, malleātor person who hammers.There is no evidence for a classical Latin verb corresponding to malleus. (Compare Anglo-Norman mailler, Old French maillier (1162), Spanish majar (1207), Portuguese malhar (13th cent.), Old Occitan malhar (c1240), Catalan mallar, and Italian magliare (Florio, 1598), which could be descended from an unattested post-classical Latin verb, or could show independent development.)
