Lexical and Grammatical Properties of Latin Suffixes in Medical Terminology

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: The article discusses the lexical and grammatical features of derivational suffixes in the Latin language that create different meanings, illustrated through examples. Terms containing such suffixes constitute a relatively small part of medical terminology. These suffixes are attached to the root of a word and express various meanings. In Latin, there are noun-forming and adjective-forming suffixes. Knowledge of these derivational and semantic suffixes is important for the easy formation and translation of medical terms.
