Certainly not a suffix
There is no way that this word can be considered a suffix. It is simply a noun. A suffix is a very specific term, referring to a word that is joined to the end of another word to modify its meaning. Please do not create pinyin entries for "suffixes" when they are not suffixes. Suffixes are very specific things, such as -ize or -osis or -ish (or Mandarin -zhǔyì), not -shoe or -shoes. There is no such thing as -shoe or -shoes. 71.66.97.228 06:28, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
