постфикс

Russian

Pronunciation
  • IPA(key): [ˈpostfʲɪks]

Noun

по́стфикс • (póstfiks) m inan (genitive по́стфикса, nominative plural по́стфиксы, genitive plural по́стфиксов)

  1. (grammar, in the narrow sense) a suffix which follows an inflectional ending (for example, -ся, -то, -либо, -нибудь in Russian)
  2. (grammar, in the wide sense) suffix, postfix (of any variety)
    Antonym: пре́фикс (préfiks)
    Hyponyms: су́ффикс (súffiks), фле́ксия (fléksija), оконча́ние (okončánije)

Usage notes
  • The narrow sense (“a suffix which follows an inflectional ending”) is traditionally used in Russian grammar classes and textbooks.
  • The wide sense is often used in linguistics due to the narrow sense of су́ффикс (súffiks) (unlike suffix in English usage, су́ффикс (súffiks) in Russian excludes inflectional endings).
