Aramaeism

== English == === Alternative forms === Aramæism, Arameism === Etymology === Formed in English from Aramaean +‎ -ism by swapping -an with -ism. === Noun === Aramaeism (countable and uncountable, plural Aramaeisms) (hypercorrect, rare) Misconstruction of Aramaism ==== Usage notes ==== The ending -aeismus (or -æismus) is a hypercorrect one not attested in Classical Latin, as it would imply a Greek -αϊισμός (-aïismós), which does not exist. Greek formations use -αϊσμός (-aïsmós) instead, Latinized as -aismus: e.g. Ancient Greek Ἰουδαϊσμός (Ioudaïsmós) (Latin iudaismus), from Ancient Greek Ἰουδαῖος (Ioudaîos) (Latin iudaeus).
