Etymology

[edit]

User:Circeus had left a note in text: Is "me" a collective suffix? Without giving its semantic meaning, the sentence makes no sense concerning this: He derived term "satversme" from satvert ("to hold") by using the -me- suffix and a feminine ending, -e, to illustrate how a constitution is holding together all other laws. Apperantly I have made few mistakes and etymology section could do some suggestions, so I'm moving this issue here. I had made spelling mistake - the suffix acctualy is -sm- not -me- (I corrected it) and I didn't thought that it is neccecery to say that "satvert" is verb not root, since Circeus removed "verb" from article it might be. Latvian words can have up to four morphemes - preffix, root, suffix and ending, "Satversme" has all four - Sa-tver-sm-e.Preffix "sa-" means something longlasting and strong. tver- is root that means "to hold", "to grab" "to catch". Suffix -sm- has no meaning, it is sometimes used to derive nouns. -e is ending of fifth declension - which means that gender of the word is feminine. I, however, am not sure what is english terminology for this -- Xil/talk 13:02, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
