Talk:-aster

-astry
there's also -astry for the activity of an -aster. I found the sentence
 * He is quite capable of such an enormity of philologastry.

although it was in a dictionary. I havent found it in running text, even in an old book, so far, but presumably if that word exists, -astry exists. — Soap — 21:11, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I have found in running text . We have entries for  and .  also . A separate entry for the suffix seems warranted. Einstein2 (talk) 21:24, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Philologastry is my favorite word now, at least until I find a new one.  I work slowly, but as I understand it, if we have three words using that suffix, the suffix is considered attested, so I should be able to do this if nobody else gets to it first.
