Word Matrix: D (“give”)

Word Matrix: D

After returning from a two-week family vacation last weekend, I found my sleep schedule completely messed up. Instead of tossing and turning in bed, I decided to peruse linguistics Twitter. I came upon a tweet from fellow word inquirer Sally Cole asking if <add> and <*addit> are twin bases. I quickly fell down a word study rabbit hole.

First, I could see that the form would have to be <addite> to keep the <t> from doubling per English spelling rules. Without the replaceable <e>, <*addit + ion> would result in <*addittion>. Then I did some more digging on Etymonline.

The noun <addition> comes from Old French <adition>, from Latin <additionem> (nominative <additio>), which is a noun of action from the past participle stem of <addere>, which comes from <ad> “to” + <-dere>, combining form meaning “to put, place,” from <dare> “to give.” The verb <add> also comes from Latin <addere>.

At first I also thought that <add> and <addite> were twin bases, but I was wrong. Twin bases derive from the 2nd and 4th principal parts of a Latin verb.

2nd: addere
4th: additus

The <it(e)> in <additus> is a stem suffix. The <it(e)> is removable. All the suffixes, both inflectional and stem, must be removed to get to the base. <add> and <addite> are not twin bases. The base is <add>.

Additional evidence for the <it(e)> suffix is found in the words <audit> and <fruit>. The word <audit> comes from Latin <auditus> “a hearing, a listening,” past participle of <audire> “to hear.” The 2nd and 4th principal parts are <audire> and <auditus>. The base is <aud>, which gives us words such as <audio> and <audible>. The word <fruit> comes from Latin <fructus> “an enjoyment, delight, satisfaction; proceeds, produce, fruit, crops,” which gives us the twin bases <fru> and <fruct>.

Aud + it(e) -> audit
Aud + i + o -> audio
Aud + ible -> audible
Fru + it(e) -> fruit
Fru + it(e) + ion -> fruition

With evidence for <it(e)> as a Latin stem suffix, I then wondered if <add> is further analyzable if Latin <addere> is <ad + dere>. Is the base <add> or <d>?

?ad + D -> add
?ad + D + it(e) + ions -> addition

I looked for more evidence by searching for -dere in Etymonline and found <extradition> and <abscond>. The word <extradition> comes from Latin <ex> + <traditionem> (nominative <traditio>), which gives us <ex + tradition>. <tradition> comes from <tradere> “deliver, hand over,” from <trans> “over” + <dare> “to give.”

<traduce> is evidence for the <tra> prefix, which is a variation of <trans> “across, beyond, through, on the other side of, to go beyond, cross.” I already knew <duce> is a base because of words such as <produce> and <induce>.

tra + Duce -> traduce
tra + D + it(e) + ion -> tradition
ex + tra + D + it(e) + ion -> extradition

<abscond> comes from Latin <abscondere>, from assimilated form of <ab> “off, away from” + <condere> “put together, store,” from assimilated form of <com> “together” + <dere> “put.” Evidence for <abs> and <con> includes <abscise>, <concave>, <convex>, and <concede>.

abs + con + D -> abscond
abs + Cise -> abscise
con + Cave -> concave
con + Vex -> convex
con + Cede -> concede

Other words that have <d> bases include <incondite>, <recondite>, <condiment>, <edit>, and <edition>.

in + con + D + it(e) -> incondite
re + con + D + it(e) -> recondite
con + D + i + ment -> condiment
e + D + it(e) -> edit
e + D + it(e) + ion -> edition

I will also add that <add> is typically treated as a free base element but can arguably be analyzed into <ad + d>.

In addition to uncovering the <d> base, I also learned six other interesting English spelling tidbits while studying <add>. First, I discovered another Latin suffix while studying the word <addendum>. The first part of the word is <ad + d>, and the final suffix is the singular Latin suffix <um>, which left the <end> portion. Looking in Etymonline, I learned that <addendum> is the gerundive of Latin <addere>. The Latin gerundive consists of (1) the infectum stem, (2) a vowel, (3) the suffix -nd-, and (4) an inflectional ending. Thus, <e> is a connecting vowel, and <nd> is a Latin gerundive suffix.

ad + D + e + nd + um -> addendum

Second, <add> and <address> are unrelated despite the identical first three letters. The word <add> again comes from Latin <addere>, from <ad> “to” + <dere>, combining form meaning “to put, place,” from dare “to give.” The word <address>, however, comes from Old French <adrecier>, from <ad> “to” + <dis> “apart” + <regere> “to direct, to guide, keep straight.”

Third, I discovered two different <it(e)> morphemes. The first is the <it(e)> Latin stem suffix as found in <audit>, <edit>, and <fruit>.

Aud + it(e) -> audit
e + D + it(e) -> edit
e + D + it(e) + ing -> editing
Fru + it(e) -> fruit
Fru + it(e) + ion -> fruition

The second is the <It(e)> base from Latin <ire> “to go” as found in <exit>, <transit>, and <visit>.

ex + It(e) -> exit
ex + It(e) + ed -> exited
trans + It(e) -> transit
Vise + It(e) -> visit
Vise + It(e) + ing -> visiting
Vise + ion -> vision

Fourth, the word <edit> also gave me the words <editor> and <editress>. When my oldest studied <act> a while back, I originally put <actress> as a relative because <actoress> became <actress>. But then I came across <editress>, which led me to think that <*ress> is a suffix, albeit a clip of <or + ess>. I also wondered if the agentive suffix was <(o)r> instead of <or>. The word <stewardess> is evidence for an <ess> suffix. Having both <*ress> and <ess> would be an inelegant analysis. Thus, the agentive suffixes are <(V)r> and <ess>.

e + D + it(e) + (o)r -> editor
e + D + it(e) + (o)r + ess -> editress
Act + (o)r -> actor
Act + (o)r + ess -> actress
Wait + (e)r -> waiter
Wait + (e)r + ess -> waitress
Lie + (a)r -> liar

Why does the vowel sometimes surface but other times not? The agentive suffix is not pronounced as vowel plus /ɹ/ but rather a syllabic-r, r-colored vowel, or schwar /ɚ/. English spelling requires a vowel letter in every syllable, which also explains the replaceable <e> on words like <bubble> and <jingle>. <editor> is pronounced /ˈɛdɪtɚ/, but <editress> as /ˈɛdɪtɹəs/.

Fifth, I wondered if <copy> was further analyzable as <c + Ope + y> because <copy> comes from Latin copia, from assimilated form of <com> “with” + <ops> (genitive <opis>). Evidence for the <Ope> base includes <Ope + er + a -> opera> and <co + Ope + er + ate -> cooperate>. However, there is no evidence for a <c> suffix. The word <copy> is fused, meaning <copy> is just <copy>.

Sixth, I was not sure about the <ren> in <render>, but then I found <rencounter>, which comes from Old French rencontrer. The prefix <ren> is another variation of <re> “once again” along with <red> as in <redact>. The <ren> suffix is French. The <red> suffix is Latin.

Finally, a note on <ible>, <ibility>, <able>, and <ability>: All four suffixes are further analyzable. However, I learned from Gina Cooke at Linguistic Educators Exchange to treat <ible> and <ibility> as two different suffixal constructions and the same with <able> and <ability>. The <b> is the meat of the suffix, the <le> is a reduction of the <ile>, and the <a> or <i> is the Latin stem vowel.

i + B + (i)l(e) -> ible
i + B + (i)l(e) + i + ty -> ibility
a + B + (i)l(e) -> able
a + B + (i)l(e) + i + ty -> ability

However, working synchronically with <ible/ibility> and <able/ability> is much more straightforward.

Update September 3, 2019: Gina Cooke of Linguistic Educators Exchange pointed out to me on Twitter that at least two distinct <d> base elements exist. She told me to look at the PIE roots, and I indeed discovered that most of the <d> words come from the PIE root *do- “to give.” However, a handful come from the PIE root *dhe- “to put, place”: <abscond>, <condiment>, <incondite>, and <recondite>. I have made the necessary edits to my word sums and matrix. I have included the word sums for <d> “put, place” at the bottom of this post.

<d>
“give” from -dere, combining form meaning “to put, place,” from dare “to give” (from PIE root *do- “to give”)
