- The suffix -onym, in English and other languages, means "word, name," and words ending in -onym refer to a specified kind of name or word, most of which are classical compounds. For example, an acronym is a word formed from the initial letter or letters of each of the successive parts or major parts of a compound term. The use of -onym words provides a means of classifying, often to a fine degree of resolution, sets of nouns with common attributes. In some words, the -onym form has been modified by replacing (or dropping) the "o". In the examples ananym and metanym, the correct forms were pre-occupied by other meanings. Other, late 20th century examples, such as hypernym and characternym, are typically incorrectly formed neologisms for which there are more traditional words formed in -onym. The English suffix -onym is from the Ancient Greek suffix -ώνυμον (-ōnymon), neuter of -ώνυμος (-ōnymos), having a specified kind of name, from the Greek ὄνομα (ónoma), Aeolic Greek ὄνυμα (ónyma), "name". The form -ōnymos is that taken by ónoma when it is the end component of a bahuvrihi compound, but in English its use is extended to tatpurusa compounds. The suffix is found in many modern languages with various spellings. Examples are: Dutch synoniem, German Synonym, Portuguese sinónimo, Russian синоним (sinonim), Finnish synonyymi, Indonesian sinonim. According to a 1988 study of words ending in -onym, there are four discernible classes of -onym words: (1) historic, classic, or, for want of better terms, naturally occurring or common words; (2) scientific terminology, particularly occurring in linguistics, onomastics, etc. ; (3) language games; and (4) nonce words. Older terms are known to gain new, sometimes contradictory, meanings (e.g. , eponym and cryptonym). In many cases, two or more words describe the same phenomenon, but no precedence is discernable (e.g. , necronym and penthonym). New words are sometimes created, unnecessarily, the meaning of which duplicate existing terms. Occasionally, new words are formed with little regard to historical principles.
- El sufijo -ónimo, in castellano y en otras lenguas, significa "palabra", "nombre". Las palabras que terminan en -ónimo se refieren a un tipo específico de palabra, en general una palabra compuesta. Por ejemplo: un acrónimo es una palabra formada por las letras iniciales de cada una de las sucesivas partes de un término compuesto. El uso de palabras terminadas en -ónimo sirve para clasificar conjuntos de palabras con atributos en común, a menudo con un grado muy definido de resolución.
- -onymは古典ギリシア語の複合語の成分のTemplate:Langの英語の形。「名前」を表す単語を作る。 原則としてギリシャ語語幹の後に続くが、わずかな例外がある。
