Etymology[edit]
From Proto-Germanic *-รพuz. The related suffix *-ลรพuz is marginally attested in Gothic; only ๐ผ๐ฐ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐น๐๐บ๐๐ณ๐ฟ๐ (manniskลdus) appears to match completely, although ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐๐พ๐๐ธ๐ฟ๐ (gabaurjลรพus), ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ท๐พ๐๐ณ๐ฟ๐ (auhjลdus), ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ฝ๐๐ธ๐ฟ๐ (gaunลรพus) and ๐ ๐๐ฐ๐๐๐ณ๐ฟ๐ (wratลdus) also could be interpreted as containing that suffix instead of bare -รพus.
This suffix is sometimes said to not have been productive in Gothic anymore, meaning that any word in which it is found would have to be an inherited term from Proto-Germanic.
Suffix[edit]
- Forms masculine nouns from verbs, in some cases from the zero-grade form of the base.
