The dictionary definition of anesthetize is "to render physically insensible, as by an anesthetic." As we discussed in class, an anesthetic is a (legal) drug that anesthesiologists use to anesthetize patients. We didn't go over this in class, but anesthetize is a verb.
The sentence we created in class to practice the word anesthetize is:
The victim was shot, so he was taken to the hospital and anesthetized for surgery.
Another sentence that was posted to our blog during class was:
When I have to have surgery, I want to be anesthetized.
