∙ 13y agoThe word "generate" is from the Latin word generatus, which is the past participle of the verb generare, "to produce, to procreate, to beget". This is ultimately from the Proto-Indo-European root *gen- "beget; be born", which yielded many other Greek and Latin words, including the Greek word for "generate, produce", ΓΕΝΝΑΩ, ΓΕΝΝΩ.
