rectification
rek-tih-fih-KAY-shun
Definition
The formal legal process of correcting or amending an official record, such as a trademark registration, to ensure accuracy.
Etymology
Derived from the Latin 'rectificare,' meaning 'to make straight,' which combines 'rectus' (straight or right) and 'facere' (to make or do). It entered English via Middle French in the late 14th century to describe the act of putting something right.
