Interfix

-e-

  1. Interfix used to link elements in some compounds

Usage notes

  • The interfix -e- is sometimes used in compounds where the first element ends in -a:
    • This is especially productive when the word is the second element in a longer compound, e.g. högskola (university)högskoleexamen (university degree); kolgruva (coal mine)kolgruvearbetare (coal mine worker).
    • It is also used in shorter compounds when the first element ends in the female suffixes -inna or -erska, e.g. hjältinna (heroïne)hjältinneroll (part as a heroïne)); sköterska (nurse)sköterskedräkt (nurse’s uniform).
    • It is also used for nouns ending in -ja or -ia, e.g. olja (oil)oljeplattform (oil rig), historia (history)historielektion (history lesson).
    • It is also used for some nouns ending in a consonant + /l r n/ + -a, e.g. ödla (lizard)ödleart (lizard species); åsna (donkey)åsneföl (donkey’s foal).
    • It is also used in some compounds of words ending in -a, e.g. ära (honor)ärekränka (defame); hjärta (heart)hjärtesorg (grief, heartache).
  • It is also used in some compounds ending in a consonant, e.g. natt (night)nattetid ((during) nighttime); skörd (harvest)skördetröska (combine harvester); tjänst (service)tjänsteman (civil servant); tid (time)tideräkning (chronology).
  • In some cases, -e- is found in more literary or archaic compounds, but not otherwise, e.g. stjärna (star)stjärnevalv (stellar vault), cf. stjärnkikare (astronomical telescope)
  • The interfix -e- is also more common in southern and western dialects, and thus in compounds derived from those dialects, cf. -a-, e.g. spettekaka (skewer cake), pilevall (avenue of willow trees).
