In linguistics, a suffix is an affix that succeeds the morphemes to which it can attach. Example: establish (verb) + -ment ('''suffix''') —> establishment (noun). (See derivation and also the list of English suffixes.)Nomenclature
- A suffix is a style at the end of a person's name which gives additional identifying information about the person. These may be academic, professional, honorary or social.
- In the United States, callsigns for broadcast stations may have a suffix of -FM, -AM, -TV, -LP, or -CA, if the root callsign is the same as another station's. The -HD and -DT suffixes for digital television have been dropped.
