Etymology[edit]
Borrowed as part of Medieval Latin and Middle Low German words. In both cases, it stems from Latin -ārius. The suffix -ari replaced the native suffix -i which was used for agent nouns before: skytari (“shooter, bowman”) instead of skyti (“shooter, bowman”), both derived from skjóta (“to shoot”).[1]
Suffix[edit]
-ari m
- a suffix used to create agent nouns from verbs; such as skytari (“shooter, bowman”), from skjóta (“to shoot”)
