What does legalise mean?

"Legalize" means to make something legal, which was previously illegal. It's the act of changing the law to allow something that was forbidden.

Here are some examples of how "legalize" is used:

* "The government legalized marijuana for recreational use."

* "The city council is considering legalizing short-term rentals."

* "They are pushing for legalizing assisted suicide."

The opposite of legalize is "criminalize" or "outlaw", which means to make something illegal.
