the suffix -ika

Hi,

The suffix -ika is used in such a wide variety of contexts that it's
hard to give it a precise meaning. One might be able to say it means
'pertaining to' or 'having to do with' but this is too general to
give as a definition in a workbook.There are several examples in
Warder, page 253. If you have a look at those, it might convey the
idea better than a definition.

hope this helps,

Everett
