Category talk:English words suffixed with -ka

RFD discussion: July–October 2021
This is not an English-language suffix, it is a Japanese-language suffix, 家. There is no entry for under the header "English". The English words using this "suffix" are all loanwords from Japanese. -- 65.93.183.191 08:56, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete unless there's evidence the suffix is used productively in English, e.g. by being attached to non-Japanese words. I wouldn't be surprised if people used terms like "kung-fu-ka", "taekwondo-ka", or maybe even "wrestling-ka" and "boxing-ka". If so, then we need to add an English entry at -ka. But if not, then delete this category. —Mahāgaja · talk 14:36, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment the equivalent Chinese suffix is also this (-jia, -ga, -jiajia, -gaga, -ka, -kaka, etc in alternate dialects) So it would then still could be a loanword, then from Chinese, for Chinese origin terms. It also is not restricted in Japanese to martial arts, there's mangaka. In Korean, the suffix is "-ga" (such as "manhwaga" or "taekwondoga"); For boxing the English term is "boxer"; for wrestling the English term is "wrestler". -- 65.93.183.191 01:02, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete. All of the entries in this category as of today——are borrowings in toto from Japanese, and most clearly not cases where an English term has a suffix added to it.  ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 20:08, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
