French people think it is the english translation of the french word "vulgarisation scientifique"
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulgarisation

It seems to be in the english dictionary as “to make popular”:
        http://dictionary.reverso.net/english-definition/vulgarisation

(coming from latin I guess lots of languages have it with kind-of-the same meaning.)
For my german ear it sound horrible, as “vulg�r” has picked up *very* negative
connotations.

You really do not want to be that… or make your research that:

Knowing that "vulgaire" in french has more or less the same meaning than  “vulg�r” in German :)
