Suffix

IPA: [ɒ] Audio: Hu-a.ogg

According to some linguists this attachment happened in the Proto-Uralic era, while others think it happened much later when the Hungarian language became independent.

Suffix

IPA: [ɒ] Audio: Hu-a.ogg
Etymology: First attested in 1055. It can be traced back to Proto-Uralic *-i̮ which with the word-final vowel created the diphthong -ai̮/-ei̮. This had simplified to -á/-é, finally in the Old Hungarian era it had shortened to -a/-e. It was a productive suffix at that time, the back-vowel variant was used even in front-vowel words such as the Old Hungarian female given names Fehéra and Szépa, derived from fehér (“light in color”) and szép (“beautiful”), respectively.

  1. (diminutive suffix) The back-vowel variant of the -a/-e diminutive suffix pair. In the past it could be found in common nouns, as well, but today it is used mostly in given names. Tags: diminutive, morpheme, suffix

Suffix

IPA: [ɒ] Audio: Hu-a.ogg
Etymology: Along with its front-vowel counterpart -e, from the diphthongs -ai̮/-ei̮, developing to -á/-é, then shortened to this form by the end of the early Old Hungarian period. After the participle suffix became fixed as -ó/-ő, the remaining words suffixed with -a/-e underwent conversion; some became adjectives, others, nouns. Etymology templates: {{m|hu|-e|id=participle}} -e, {{m|hu||-ai̮/-ei̮}} -ai̮/-ei̮, {{m|hu||-á/-é}} -á/-é, {{m|hu|-ó}} -ó, {{m|hu|-ő}} -ő, {{m|hu||-a/-e}} -a/-e Head templates: {{head|hu|suffix}} -a
  1. (obsolete participle suffix) Synonym of -ó (present-participle suffix) From a synchronic perspective, it can be viewed as a nominal-forming suffix, preserved in some adjectives and nouns (see below). No longer productive. Its front-vowel version is -e. Tags: morpheme, obsolete, participle, suffix Synonyms: [synonym, synonym-of]
