verbalization
Putting into words
Verbalization is the act of putting thoughts, feelings, or ideas into words.
The term often implies that what's being expressed was previously unspoken or internal: The therapist encouraged verbalization of her fears.
In linguistics and grammar, verbalization refers to turning a non-verb into a verb—as when "friend" becomes "to friend someone."
