Hi @Urszag. How shall we handle the etymologies of deponents like this? 'From {{af|la|piscis|-ō|alt2=-or|id2=denominative}}'? Nicodene (talk) 20:03, 2 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

That seems right to me. It is established practice to categorize these under Category:Latin terms suffixed with -o (denominative), and I agree with that because the entry for covers both active and passive forms. Some verbs lack passive forms or are deponent and lack active forms, but the etymological information specific to the suffix -ō covers both of these as well as verbs that have both active and passive forms.--Urszag (talk) 02:48, 3 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
