(countable, uncountable) The process or result of singularizing
Migrant in the singular is used as a noun or as a premodification of another noun, e.g., migrant worker (individualisation, singularisation), migrant labour (functionalisation) or migrant community (collectivisation, singularisation) and migrant families (collectivisation, pluralization), and such cases appear in all papers.
2019, Anna Bączkowska, “A Corpus-Assised Critical Discourse Analysis of 'Migrants' and 'Migration' in the British Tabloids and Quality Press”, in Barbara Lewandowska-Tomaszczyk, editor, Contacts and Contrasts in Cultures and Languages, Springer, →ISBN, page 168:When the world is moving towards globalisation and standardisation, India seems to be taking a step back. For something like clothing sizes for the Indian consumer market, singularisation makes way more sense than putting efforts into into introducing an entirely new size chart.
