Etymology

From -in, but Potet (2013) finds this suffix as abnormal so surmises it to be influenced by Sanskrit -इन् (-in) as in अपचारिन् (apacārin), specifically for salarin.

Pronunciation
  • IPA(key): /ˈɾin/, [ˈɾin]

Suffix

-rin

  1. alternative form of -in
    ‎sala (“fault”) + ‎-rin → ‎salarin (“culprit”)
