Origin
editFirst, we're told "The history of this usage as a self-conscious literary construction, typically as a book title, traces back to 1740 ..."
Then, we're given an example that dates from 1718. Doesn't this mean that -ana/-iana dates from at least as early as 1718? -- Jack of Oz ... speak! ... 07:19, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
- What the page cited as reference shows in 1740 is Scaligerana, Thuana, Perroniana, which is the self-conscious manufacture of titles using the suffix. There could be more to it all, I don't know the bibliographic material in any detail. Thanks for the expansion, by the way. Charles Matthews (talk) 21:48, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks, Charles. I missed your post back in Feb. -- Jack of Oz ... speak! ... 23:19, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

- The original usage is Virgiliana relating to the works of Virgil. See Libfix. This should be included on the page. VenomousConcept (talk) 19:01, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

Japanese
editCould Hiragana and Katakana be described here or does that have a differing etymology? Ranze (talk) 22:39, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
