Etymology 1
la storage location -ārium :nom<g:n> -ārius<id:adjective> + Cf. la -ium.
Suffix
-ārium<2>
la storage location used primarily to form nouns of purpose from other nouns, such as places where things are kept or objects used for a particular end
la arma<t:weapons, tools> -ārium armārium<t:closet, chest>
la sōl<t:sun> -ārium sōlārium<t:sundial, house-top>
la columba<t:dove> -ārium columbārium<t:dovecot>
la glōssa<t:definition> -ārium glōssārium<t:glossary, collection of glosses>
Usage notes
la -ārium of purpose: All usages of the la -ārium suffix are properly neuter substantivisations for adjectives derived in la -ārius from existing substantives. In most cases, the relationship between the two nouns is ‘place where;’ this usage has been productive in all periods of Classical and post-Classical Latin. In addition, the same suffix has continued to be used to designate novel items according to their purposes. This class constitute approximately a quarter of commonly used la -ārium suffixations. Adjectives in la -ārius are generally formed from numerals or nouns.
la sūdor sweat → la sūdārius sweatyla-cla 86 103 w:Martial Martial#Martial's Epigrams Epigrammata XI.XXXIX.3 Iam mihi nigrescunt tonsa sudaria barba → la sūdārium handkerchief
la mīlle thousand → la milliārius relating to miles or thousands → la milliārium milepost
la album the colour white → la albārius relating to whitening walls → la albārium stucco
la -ārium by analogy: three commonly used nouns have been formed by analogy from adjectives or verbs:
la viridārium hunting preserve from la viridis
la inventārium inventory from la inveniō
la caldārium hottest room in a Roman bath from la caldus
la -ārium for re-substantivation: four commonly used nouns are re-substantivated versions of cognate nouns formed directly from the adjectives in la -ārium: la pampinārium vine tendril, la alveārium beehive, la cellārium pantry, cellar, and la fustuārium death by cudgeling. With the exception of la cellārium, which was first attested in the fourth century, the remaining words were likely coined prior to the first millennium.
For roots containing /l/, there is some overlap in usage with the etymologically distinct third-declension suffix la -āre and its apocopated variant la -ar (derived from the neuter forms of the adjective suffix la -āris, a dissimilated form of la -ālis); thus, la cochleārium alongside la cochlear, la lacūnārium alongside la lacūnar, la pulvīnārium alongside la pulvīnar. Note that the nominative/accusative/vocative plural forms like la lacūnāria and la pulvīnāria are identical for both types of declension.
