The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.


-metre

[edit]

Not a suffix. Rather centi- et al. are prefixes. --WikiTiki89 (talk) 11:21, 2 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Clear Delete, metre is a word. As an aside, -meter claimed that -metre was a valid alternative form for the "measuring device" sense. This is wrong - -meter as in speedometer is the correct spelling in both British and American English. -metre as a suffix is completely meaningless.
