Wow! Thanks, Dr. Bill! I never knew that '-xen-' means 'foreign'. I think they went a little far in a couple from this group, though:
-dom 'state of ...'
alcoholdom, angeldom, antdom, beggardom, birddom, bishopdom, Christendom, citizendom, doctordom, dukedom, exiledom, fabledom, factordom, fairydom, fossildom, gangdom, Hebrewdom, Jewdom, kittendom, Manchesterdom, Maoridom, Mormondom, motherdom, orphandom, playerdom, pygmydom, richdom, Serbdom, serfdom, teacherdom, Torydom, vassaldom, Yahoodom, Yankeedom, Zuludom Yahoodom?? Come on...!
