What does -uary mean

1 answer

The suffix "-uary" is derived from the Latin root "-uarius," which is used in certain English words to indicate a relationship to something or a specific type of affiliation. It is most commonly seen in the context of months, as in "January" and "February." In these cases, the suffix is part of the name of the month and does not have a standalone meaning.

While it may appear in other words, its usage is quite limited. If you have a specific context or example in mind, I can provide more detailed information!
