Pronunciation yes tūdō Suffix -tūdō<3> -itude, -ness; used to form abstract nouns indicating a condition or state. la -tās -ia -itia -tūs abstract noun Usage notes When used as a productive suffix, -tūdō is usually attached to the stem of an adjective (or sometimes a participle) to form an abstract noun ending in la -itūdō that indicates a condition or state, as in the following examples: la magnus great magnitūdō greatness la mollis soft mollitūdō softness A limited number of nouns instead show -tūdō attached to a verb base: la valeo be healthy valētūdō health The forms la dēsuētūdō, la cōnsuētūdō, etc., can be analyzed similarly as ending in la -suē- + la -tūdō (where la -suē- is the abstract root underlying the verb la suēscō); alternatively, they can be analyzed as ending in the participle stem la -suēt- (as in la dēsuētus, la cōnsuētus) followed by a variant ending la -ūdō, perhaps produced by haplology.
