etumとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

Rebracketed from nouns in -tum (“〃”) ending in -ētum; perhaps from veprētum (“a thicket of bramble”), from veprēs, or the early-attested olētum. Starting with a vowel, its hability to be attached to any noun stem likely helped the suffix to supplant -tum.

Compare to other neuter suffixes that can form nouns representing locations, such as -ārium n, -īle n, -tōrium n (vs. masculine -ārius,-īlis, -tōrius).
