Proto-Slavic
[edit]Etymology 1
[edit]Nominal suffix of onomatopoeic origin, expressing muffling or resonant nuance to the specified sound. Exhibits parallels in other Indo-European languages, cf. English puff or English flop, however, no common ancestral origin could be established. Most of the derived terms with this ending were later grammaticized.
Suffix
[edit]*-pъ m
- From expressive or onomatopoeic interjections, forms onomatopoeic action nouns referring to the respective interjection
Etymology 2
[edit]Uncertain. There have been various ad hoc[1][2] attempts to explain concrete derivatives.
Encountered as an extension to roots in parallel to resembling derivatives with other extensions, e.g.:
- Proto-Slavic *glupъ (“stupid”): compared[3] with Proto-Slavic *glumъ, *gluxъ (“deaf”).
- Proto-Slavic *vorpъ (“assault, ripple, wrinkle”): compared[4] with Proto-Slavic *verti (“to shove, to thrust”), *vьrěti (“to brew, to boil”), *vьrlъ (“enraged, violent”) and forms related to Proto-Slavic *vьrtěti (“to turn, to rotate”).
Possibly inherited from Proto-Indo-European *-pos, cf. Sanskrit वर्पस् (varpas, “shape, form”). Compare Lithuanian -ópas attested in Lithuanian *antrópas (“different”), savópas (“particular”), dvejópas (“binary”), etc.
Suffix
[edit]*-pъ
- Forms adjectives from roots:
- *sverěpъ (“wild, cruel”)
- Forms resultative or object nouns from adjectives or verbs:
- Forms nouns expressing a state from base nouns or adjectives with the addition of *-(l)u-. Equivalent to *-upъ:
