Bastardising nouns as verbs

Of course the chief culprits here as the yanks and  I can see how it started. With their inexorable search for an 'independant' language coupled with their slovenly speech  they try to make life easier apparently.

Whilst I despise the word 'hospitalise' I can see why it might be considered more usable than 'admit to hospital'. However wher the the blazes did the verb to 'architect' come from, eh ? Answer me that ! The only verb I knew about to describe a the process of creation from human ideas was 'design'. And, since when, did 'leverage' come into being as an acceptable alternative to 'harness' ? Twats -  the lot of them.
