Category:Tocharian B terms suffixed with -ñe

Tocharian B.

The tag says that kinnarñe is formed with a different suffix, but the creator of request and claimed error, @GabeMoore, has not corrected the original entry. That screams keep! --RichardW57m (talk) 11:09, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

It would be great to hear input from @GabeMoore here. What is morphologically going on in these Tocharian terms? This, that and the other (talk) 12:34, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

I'm not actually entirely sure what's going on in this entry, as I'm not able to access the page it was on anymore. However, this individual entry of kinnarñe looks like it may have been a shortened form of the adjective-forming suffix -ññe, as -ñe seems to form nouns in all the other cases.

I made the rfd because the category was full of mistakenly-categorized instances of -lñe, but later on I created pages that did actually use the adjective > noun suffix -ñe, which is where the category page gets its present content from. aikatte (“indestructible”) > aikatñe (“indestructibility”); aiśamo (“smart”) > aiśamñe (“wisdom”) both show it's a productive suffix that should be kept as a category.

@GabeMoore I take it that you would withdraw this request now? This, that and the other (talk) 22:52, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

Yep, I've been meaning to do that. GabeMoore (talk) 04:15, 27 September 2022 (UTC)

Retracted, as this turned out to be a productive suffix. GabeMoore (talk) 04:15, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
