The origin of the word Christmas

This word comes from Latin” nativitas “which means in turn” birth “for this commemorates the birth of Jesus.

In turn, the word nativitas has its own composition:

natus ( born ): It means giving birth or engendering.

- tivus ( -tive, passive or active relationship ): It is a suffix, which implies a relationship, as in active and positive.

- tat ( -dad, quality ): Also a suffix, indicates a quality in the verb

If we put everything together, you could say that it is the quality (-tat) relative (-tivus) to the born (natus)

Tell me, please!
