词源
from French -ieux, from Latin -iosus.
-iousa compound suffix, consisting of the suffix -ous, added to an i which is part of another suffix, repr. L. -iōsus, F. -ieux, with sense ‘characterized by, full of’. Found in L. in adjs. formed from derivative ns. in -ia, -ies, -ius, -ium, as invidiōsus invidious, perniciōsus pernicious, ēbriōsus drunken, ebrious, odiōsus odious; by false analogy in cūriōsus curious (from cūra): see -ous. Also in adjs. belonging to ns. in -io, -iōn-em, as ambit-iōs-us (from ambit-iōn-em) ambitious; so captiōsus captious, factiōsus factious, obliviōsus oblivious, religiōsus scrupulous, religious, seditiōsus seditious, suspiciōsus suspicious, etc. By analogical extension from these, there is a tendency in English to form an adj. in -ious beside any n. in -ion, esp. those in -tion, -cion, -sion, e.g. rebell-ion, -ious, caution, -ious, infection, -ious, contradictious, deceptious, disputatious, dissentious (for -sious), ignitious. Adjs. in -ious are also formed in Eng. by adding -ous to the stem of L. adjs. in -i-us, e.g. L. vari-us various; also in -itious from L. -īci-us, as adventitious: see -itious, and -ous.
☞ -ous, -eous, -ose, -ious
