Origin:
The word "transmogrify" first appeared in English in the 16th century. It was derived from the Latin word "transmogrificare," which meant "to change form." The Latin word was itself formed from the prefix "trans-" (across, through) and the verb "mogrificare" (to transform). "Mogrificare" is a derivative of the Latin word "figura" (form).
The word "transmogrify" was originally used to describe the process of changing the form of a person or thing into a different form. Over time, the word came to be used more generally to describe any kind of complete and often grotesque transformation.
