paragogic (comparative more paragogic, superlative most paragogic)

1. (phonology) Of, pertaining to, or constituting, a paragoge; added to the end of, or serving to lengthen, a word.

   In the Semitic languages, paragogic letters are added to the ordinary forms of words to express additional emphasis or a change in the meaning.

   • 2025, Cid Swanenvleugel, The Pre-Roman Elements of the Sardinian Lexicon, page 137:

     The loss of final -n is irregular. We would rather expect *teón to develop into **θòno, with a paragogic vowel as in (Log.) sámbene' ‘blood’ < sanguen, nòmene ‘name’ < nōmen and báttoro ‘four’ < quatt(u)or.
