subductiveadj.

Brit.

/səbˈdʌktɪv/,

/ˌsʌbˈdʌktɪv/, U.S.

/səbˈdəktɪv/

Origin: Of multiple origins. A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element. Apparently partly formed within Enhlish, by derivation. Etymons: Latin subduct- , subducere , -ive suffix; subduction n., -ive suffix.

Etymology: < classical Latin subduct-, past participial stem of subducere subduce v. + -ive suffix. In sense 3 apparently independently < subduct- (in subduction n.; compare slightly earlier subduct v. 5) + -ive suffix.

†1. Of or relating to elimination from the body (cf. subduction n. 1a). Obsolete. rare.
