Etymology
ca la -ēnus, from la -nus.
Pronunciation
Suffix
forms an ordinal number from a cardinal number
ca chemistry -ene
Usage notes
The first four ordinals are irregular, and irregular forms derived directly from the Latin ordinal instead of using this suffix on the modern Catalan cardinal exist for 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 20, 100, and 1000. Ordinals for the powers of 1 000 000 do not use this suffix, but instead use ca -èsim. Uniquely, ca novè ninth can be viewed as either coming from the use of this suffix or directly from the Latin ordinal.
