Publish

Publish (/ˈpʌblɪʃ/), from the Latin publicare meaning "to make public", is the process of production and dissemination of literature, music, or information — the activity of making information available to the general public. In some cases, authors may be their own publishers, meaning originators and developers of content also provide media to deliver and display the content.

Etymology
