From Proto-Italic *-kos, from Proto-Indo-European *-kos. Cognate with Ancient Greek -κός (-kós), Proto-Germanic *-gaz, Sanskrit -शस (-śasa) and Proto-Slavic *-kъ.
PIE *-ko- on noun stems carried the meaning 'characteristic of, like, typical, pertaining to', and on adjectival stems it acted emphatically.
-cus (feminine -ca, neuter -cum); first/second-declension suffix
This suffix survives in inherited forms and became productive through its derivations (cf. infra) by metanalysis.
First/second-declension adjective.
