Definitions
Logarithmization is a technical mathematical term for the action or process of applying logarithms to a set of values — converting raw data to its logarithmic form, typically to handle exponential scale or normalise a distribution. Used in mathematics, statistics, and data science. Entirely standard technical vocabulary with no slang dimension. The entry is of interest mainly to confirm the American English spelling with '-ization' (versus the British '-isation').
The logarithmization of the dataset made the skewed distribution much easier to analyse.

Metrification refers to the process of converting measurements, systems, or even written works into a metric or structured format. In North American usage it often describes the shift from imperial to metric measurement — the kind of thing governments wrestle with for decades. In a literary sense, metrification means reshaping prose or irregular verse into a regular metrical pattern. Either way, it implies imposing an organized, standardized framework onto something previously loose or inconsistent.
- Mormonization52%
A term describing the process or act of converting someone — or a broader community or culture — to Mormonism (the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints). Like similar '-ization' constructions, it can be used neutrally in academic or sociological contexts to describe patterns of religious conversion, though in casual use it sometimes carries a skeptical or critical edge depending on the speaker's perspective. Found in discussions of religious history, American social history, and occasionally in culture-war commentary.
