Ukrainian[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From Latin -ātiō, an alternative form of -tiō.

Suffix[edit]

-а́ція (-ácijaf

  1. -ation

Usage notes[edit]

  • Frequently added to Latinate verbs ending in -ува́ти (-uváty) or -овати (-ovati), where it replaces the entire suffix. It is often difficult to tell native Russian formations of this sort from those where a Latinate foreign noun ending in English -ation, French -ation, Italian -azione, etc. was borrowed directly.
