RFD discussion: February 2018–February 2019[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process (permalink).

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.


I see no reason to use/invent/posit such a suffix. soliloquium can be parsed as solus + loquor + -ium and vaniloquium as vanus + loquor + -ium (as for colloquium, it's plain wrong: it's colloquor + -ium). I think we should abstain from creating that kind of "compound suffixes" unless absolutely necessary; I prefer we see the forest for the trees, and keep small derivational units whenever possible. See the business with -ficium above. --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 13:38, 12 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
