Can someone add etymology source of this suffix? please. — This unsigned comment was added by 106.165.79.32 (talk).

Inadequate

[edit]

At least post-9/11, I think this suffix sometimes has more implications than just "home". It might suggest that a place is being taken over by Islamic rule, for example. Equinox 01:25, 3 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
