PIE adjectival ''n''-suffix from bases ending in -''i''- or -''ī''-. Possible sources include derivation from ''i''-abstracts (→ -''ino''-, e.g. {{bib|Nussbaum 1999}}: 400), possibly from ''i''-stem collectives or feminina (*-''ih₂-no''- > -''īno''-), decasuative derivation from ''i''-locatives (→ -''ino''), ''i''-stem instrumentals (*-''ih₁-no''- > -''īno''-) and {{m||-ī|ī}}-genitives (*-''iH-no''- > -''īno''-).

Commentary
PIE adjectival n-suffix from bases ending in -i- or -ī-. Possible sources include derivation from i-abstracts (→ -ino-, e.g. Nussbaum 1999: 400), possibly from i-stem collectives or feminina (*-ih₂-no- > -īno-), decasuative derivation from i-locatives (→ -ino), i-stem instrumentals (*-ih₁-no- > -īno-) and ī-genitives (*-iH-no- > -īno-). Since any of these may have produced a recut and secondarily productive suffix in Celtic, the decision concerning the length of the vowel is usually difficult to make. For all (potential) Cisalpine Celtic attestations, /ī/ is more probable; see the word pages for details.
