EVOKE
What evoke means
To bring a thought, feeling, or memory into the mind or consciousness, especially through suggestion or association rather than direct statement.
Where the word comes from
From Latin *evocare*, meaning "to call out" or "to summon forth," composed of the prefix *e-* (out) and *vocare* (to call). The Latin verb derives from *vox*, meaning "voice." The word entered English through Old French *evoquer* during the medieval period, initially meaning to summon a spirit or recall something from memory, later broadening to mean drawing forth any response or emotion.
