Desinence description |
---|
In linguistics, a suffix (sometimes termed postfix) is an affix which is placed after the stem of a word. Common examples are case endings, which indicate the grammatical case of nouns or adjectives, and verb endings, which form the conjugation of verbs. * Particularly in the study of Semitic languages, suffixes are called afformatives, as they can alter the form of the words. * In Indo-European studies, a distinction is made between suffixes and endings (see Proto-Indo-European root). Suffixes can carry grammatical information or lexical information. * An inflectional suffix is sometimes called a desinence or a grammatical suffix or ending. Inflection changes the grammatical properties of a word within its syntactic category * Derivational suffixes can be divided into two categories: class-changing derivation and class-maintaining derivation.* |
