Transmogrify (verb)
tranz-mog-ri-fai
To change in appearance or form, especially strangely or grotesquely; transform.
Transmogrify entered English around 1650–60. Earlier, transmogrify was also written transmigrify or transmography. Transmogrify is apparently a pseudo-Latinism, which is a word formed from or imitative of Latin.
