Usage notes
The suffix is occasionally added to other parts of speech, or appears in situations where no related verb apparently exists; more at la -ātiō.
la gradātiō making of a staircase or steps, from la gradus step, pace.
Nouns built using this suffix are sparsely used by Plautus quasi-verbally, alongside a copula in the third person, a dative as agent and an accusative as direct object: Quid tibi hūc ventiō est? Quid tibi hanc aditiō est? ¶ Quid tibi hanc nōtiō est, inquam, amīcam meam? (Truculentus, 622-623).
