-ntaa
Finnish
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Proto-Finnic *-ntadak, possibly even from Proto-Uralic *-mta-, but in any case equal to -(e)n(e)- + -taa (the causative form of -eta, with which the stem-final vowel change is shared).
Suffix
[edit]-ntaa (front vowel harmony variant -ntää, stem -nta-, linguistic notation -ntA- or -ntAA)
- Forms factitive verbs from adjectives and names of languages, meaning "causing to become" or "making"., or in the case of languages, to translate into that language; -en, -fy.
Usage notes
[edit]The suffix is added to the genitive singular (weak grade) stem. A preceding stem-final -a-, -ä- changes to -e- (see -eta for more on this change), except in some newer derivations, such as kuvantaa and kustantaa.
