/ˈvɪndɪkeɪt//ˈvɪndɪkeɪt/

The word "vindicate" has its roots in Latin. It comes from the verb "vindicare," which means "to claim or recover as one's own" or "to justify or prove one's innocence." This Latin verb is based on the combination of "vinus," meaning "revenge" or "vengeance," and "dicere," meaning "to say." In English, the word "vindicate" first appeared in the 15th century, initially meaning "to justify or clear of guilt or suspicion." Over time, its meaning expanded to include the idea of proving someone's honor, reputation, or rights have been unfairly attacked or impaired. Today, "vindicate" is often used in contexts such as clearing one's name, proving a theory or idea, or seeking justice or revenge. Would you like me to help with anything else?
