abolisjonist
Norwegian Bokmål
editEtymology
editFrom English abolitionist, from abolition, either from Middle French abolition, or directly from Latin abolitiō (“abolishing, annulling, abolition”), from aboleō (“I retard, destroy, abolish”), from both ab- (“away, from, off”), from Latin ab (“from, away from, on, in”), from Proto-Italic *ab, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂epó (“off, away”) + and from *oleō (“I grow”), from Proto-Italic *oleō, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂oléye-, from *h₂el- (“to grow, nourish”). Equivalent to abolisjon + -ist, with the suffix from French -iste (“-ist, -istic”), from Latin -ista (“-ist; one who practises or believes”), from Ancient Greek -ιστής (-istḗs), alternative form of -τής (-tḗs), from Proto-Hellenic *-tās, probably from Proto-Indo-European *-teh₂.
