dramatize = drama（戏剧）+ -ize（动词后缀），把故事变成戏剧，也指把小事渲染得很夸张。
语境与语域Context & Register
语域：mixed 常见场景：影视/戏剧改编讨论、日常对话（责备对方夸大其词） 作及物动词时（把…改编成戏剧/影视）多用于较正式的中性语体，常见于文学、影视评论；作不及物动词时（渲染、夸大）多用于日常口语，略带负面语气。整体语体视用法而定，故标记为混合。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
The -ize words (realize, organize, recognize, criticize) share the final /aɪz/ sound with dramatize, but they are not full rhymes because their stressed syllables differ. Dramatist and dramatic look similar but sound different: dramatist ends /ɪst/, and dramatic is /drəˈmætɪk/.
