Etymology of ENTURBULATE

The word "enturbulate" is a coined term that was popularized in the late 1960s by the Church of Scientology. It was created by combining the prefix "en-" (meaning "to make" or "to cause") with the word "turbulate", which is not a recognized word in standard English.

The Church of Scientology uses the term "enturbulate" to describe a state of mental or spiritual turmoil, agitation, or disturbance. It is often used in the context of the organization's teachings, practices, and ideologies.

Since "enturbulate" was specifically created by Scientology, its etymology is based solely on the formation of the word within the context of that particular belief system.
