Systematization is the act of putting facts, numbers, ideas or ways of working into an organised order — turning a messy pile into a system. If a library has books stacked anywhere and someone gives every book a number and a shelf, that is systematization. If a company down the steps everyone should follow instead of letting each person invent their own, that is systematization too. It is the noun from the verb 'systematize', which means to do that. Be honest with your students about the register: this is a heavy, formal, academic word. It appears in scholarly writing, in law, in management reports, in philosophy and in the history of science. It almost never appears in speech — in conversation people say 'organising', 'sorting out', 'setting up a system'. English also has the British spelling 'systematisation' with an s, which means exactly the same thing. And it carries a faint edge in some writing: some authors use it with a hint of , suggesting that turning something living and human into a tidy system takes something away from it.
系統化、體系化(把資料、想法、做法整理成有系統的一套)。學術中文常見「知識的系統化」「制度系統化」;日常說話不會用這個詞,口語就說「整理」「建立制度」。
組成systematize + -ation, the ending that turns a verb into a noun for the action or its result (organize → organization, realize → realization). The -ation ending came into English through Middle English -acioun from Old French -ation, from Latin -atio. Underneath it all sits 'system', from Greek systema, 'a whole made of parts put together'.
