单词 -trice
释义

-tricesuffix

Primary stress is most commonly retained by the usual stressed syllable of the preceding element, but in some words may be attracted to this suffix.
Etymology: < French -trice, < Latin -trīx, -trīce-m, or Italian -trice; in Latin forming feminines to agent-nouns in -tor.
In English formerly used in many words, as in corruptrice, directrice, genetrice, imperatrice, mediatrice, oratrice, salvatrice, victrice, also (from deserter) desertrice. Modern English prefers the form -trix suffix from the Latin nominative, esp. in legal and learned words; but, in others, generally substitutes the compound suffix -tress suffix.
