Best Answer

Privatation should be the opposite of publication: a piece of writing not intended for others' eyes (eg a personal diary); or the act of creating such a work. However, mostly it seems to be used as a synonym for "privatisation"; the transfer of a public asset into private hands.

Also sometimes occurs when "privation" (hardship) is meant - but I think that can be called a mistake.

Privateering is a government gives private vessels and the crew permission to attack foreign ships during war times. It is hiring ships that are privately owned along with the crew of the ship to fight during battles.
