- Do you want your body to be ashified after you pass away?
ashified
adjective; derivation
Cremated; for one's body to be turned into ash after death I used the neologism ashified because I couldn't remember the word cremated. The thought process started with what the end result was (ash), and then adding a common English verb ending (-ify in words such as 'personify' and 'caninify'), and last making it an adjective by using it in past tense.
Etymology : ashified. Derived from Middle English 'asshe,' from Old English 'æsce,' from 'as-' in Indo-European Roots, 'ash' + '-ified' (past tense of -ify, verb ending).
