Adjective [Malay]

IPA: [mə(r).de.ka] (note: Literary Standard), [mə(r).de.kə] (note: Southern Peninsular Malaysia Standard) Forms: مرديک [Jawi], lebih merdeka [comparative], paling merdeka [superlative], merdeheka [alternative]
Rhymes: -ka, -a, -kə, -ə Etymology: An elision of merdeheka ~ merdahika, borrowed from Sanskrit महर्द्धिक (maharddhika, “very prosperous”), from महा (mahā) (a combining form of म॒हत् (mahát, “abundant; great, large”); whence maha) + ऋद्धि (ṛddhi, “prosperity, wealth”) + -क (-ka, suffix forming adjectives): * म॒हत् (mahát) is ultimately derived from Proto-Indo-European *méǵh₂s (“big, great”). * ऋद्धि (ṛddhi) is possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂eldʰ- (“to accomplish”) or *h₂erdʰ- (“abundance”). The word was first attested in the Kota Kapur inscription, dated to 686 C.E., as Old Malay [script needed] (maharddhika). It is a cognate of Buginese ᨆᨑᨙᨉᨀ, Tagalog maharlika.
