后缀-ery含义、词源和例词
汉:抽象名词以及所有名词后缀ery意为"state,quality,act,place where"。后缀-ery来源于法语,主要充当派生后缀,可以加在两类单词后面:
1)加在动词后面表示 a place for ~ing (做...的场所)
2)加在名词后面,这时-ery意思比较复杂,它可以表示a place for ~ing (做...的场所);the art or occupation of a ~ (...的技艺);a group of ~s(...的群休或集体)。
英:
-erya suffix of nouns denoting occupation, business, calling or condition, place or establishment, goods or products, things collectively, qualities, actions, etc.: archery; bakery; cutlery; fishery;
trickery; witchery.
