Latin terms ending with the suffix -trum.
Terms are placed in this category using {{af|la|base|-trum}}
or {{affix|la|base|-trum}}
(or the more specific and less-preferred equivalents {{suf}}
or {{suffix}}
), where base
is the base lemma from which this term is derived.
The suffixes -tor (masculine), -trix (feminine), -trum (neuter) and -torius, -a, -um (adjective) are used with the supine stems of verbs to form nouns denoting the agent of an action, as in arator, aratrix, aratrum and aratorius, -a, -um (< aratum < aro). Other instrument noun suffixes are -bra, -brum, -bula, -bulum, -crum, -culum, -tōrium.
After being long unproductive, the suffix -trum has become productive again in New Latin as a commodity suffix for translating technological artifacts (e.g. computatrum, motrum, etc.).
