Étymologie (Anglais)

Appartenant à anglais: -

Appartenant à anglais: -ive

Appartenant à latin: prōiectīvus

In summary

Formed by the suffixation of prōiect- (the perfect passive participial stem of the Classical Latin prōiciō, whence the English verb project) with the English -ive, forming project + -ive; however, compare the post-Classical Latin prōiectīvus (“relating to purging”).
