"-ίτσιν" meaning in Ancient Greek

See -ίτσιν in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Suffix

Forms: -ítsin [romanization]
Etymology: From the suffix -ίκιον (-íkion), itself from a reanalysis of diminutive forms as Ancient Greek περδίκιον (perdíkion) from πέρδιξ (pérdix), or σκωλήκιον (skōlḗkion) from σκώληξ (skṓlēx), hence Byzantine Greek σκουλήκι (skoulḗki), both formed with the diminutive suffix -ιον (-ion). A parallel to the supposed form *κορίκιον (*koríkion) can be seen in Byzantine Greek σκουλαρίκιον (skoularíkion, “earring”) from σχολάριος (skholários, “member of the Palace guard”), hence Greek σκουλαρίκι (skoularíki).
