接尾辞

-rix f. sg. (複数形: -rices; masculine -or)

1. A suffix appended to words, chiefly verbs, to form female agent nouns.

使用する際の注意点

• For masculine agent nouns ending in -or, the feminine equivalent ending in -rix is the etymologically consistent form; however, in some cases the common feminine form has changed to become the one ending in -ess instead. For the sake of example, consider that the common feminine form of actor is actress, and no longer the earlier form actrix.

派生語

• Note that some of these derived terms may have been borrowed directly from Latin, rather than formed in English.
