English

Etymology

From Spanish -ista in "Sandinista" (1930s).

Pronunciation

Suffix

-ista

  1. Forms nouns denoting one who follows a principle; an adept.
    ‎fashion + ‎-ista → ‎fashionista
    ‎Marx + ‎-ista → ‎Marxista
    ‎Lincoln + ‎-ista → ‎Lincolnista

Usage notes

Words formed using this suffix usually have more of a pejorative connotation than related words formed using -ist. Historically, this connotation tended to be associated with socialism (in reference to Sandinistas), but may also connote a general connection to Latin America or apolitical pejorativeness.
