What’s the adjective form of odaxelagnia?

All I can think of is “odaxelagniac” like “mania” and “mania” but I’m not positive.

Is this a term for odaxelagnia a form of paraphilia? What is a “parphiliac” word?

When we used odaxelagniac, it definitely would be referred to as a noun. It

appears to me that, even though -ac is an adjective suffix, odaxelagniac would be a noun referring to someone with odaxelagnia.

Is the answer of the question in your title “What is the adjective form of odaxelagnia” good? If you live in Puerto Rico, what is the word for someone with odaxelagnia? I think a sentence like “He/she suffers from odaxelagnia” (with a predicate noun) would be more likely than either “He/she is odaxelagniac” or “He/she is odaxelagnistic” as a way of expressing the idea “He/she suffers from odaxelagnia”

How often do people say “He’s a maniac!” more than they say “He’s a maniac!”? What

this signifies is maniac is rare as a predicate adjective, but it does seem to occur fairly frequently in attributive position before a noun (e.g. -iac word in general)? “The maniac driver.” In this context, and it’s not clear that the word is actually an adjective, either noun or adjective is a word used before nouns in English.

I was able to find various examples of “odaxelagniac” being used as a noun and being used as an attributive word (I’m not sure whether a noun or adjective) before a noun.

Noun examples:

  • When I’m an odaxelagniac: “I’m an odaxelagniac It is mean I

    get sexual arousal from biting” ( Whisper.Me. You bit

  • like an odaxelagniac’s boyfriend!

    What are some good examples of “The Morning News: After Yesterday’s Fatal Crash, Renewed Questions about Ride the Ducks and The Aurora Bridge”, by Heidi Groover, Sep 25, 2015 at 9:00 am attributive examples: “Just like that teenager I yelled at last

    You

  • are right – you are. Yeah, Yeah, you’re right Why aren’t promicuous girls around here calling themselves odaxelagniac retifists? Is it a plauge?

    (Posted June 15, 2008 by Hallucigenia in “Tila Tequila calls herself an Asexual!? My asexual vision and education network forum. I didn’t

find any examples of sentences where “odaxelagniac” was used as a predicative adjective (e.g. “Dear Axeland, in the Asexual Visibility and Education Network Forums) I saw no examples of sentences where “odaxelagniac” was used as a predicative adjective (e.g. “Dear Axeland” an adjective reference to “Odaxe No examples like “I am odaxelagniac”, “He/she is odaxelagniac”, “They/we/you are odaxelagniac”).

If “odaxelagnistic” seems like it would be a “correctly” formed adjective corresponding to odaxelagnia, but I don’t think it has been used yet, and I don’t know if it would be a good choice to refer to an individual with

odaxelagnia If for whatever reason you want a word related to odaxelagnia that is definitely an adjective and not a noun, I think the most likely formation would

The Oxford English Dictionary has an entry for the adjective algolagnistic, which it says is from ” algolagnia n.”. + -istic suffix, after German algolagnistisch (1892). This is defined as Of,

refering to, or characterized by algolagnia; sadomasochistic and “.

I can’t find a dictionary with entries for urolagnistic or coprolagnistic, Google searches turns up a few examples of these adjectives.

The example sentences in OED entry for algolagnistic indicate to me that adjectives of this type tend to be used to refer to behaviors or inclinations rather than to individuals:

  • 1895 Chaddock tr. Therapeutic Suggestion ix. A. P. F. von Schrenck-Notzing Therapeutic Suggestion 175 There is always a tendency towards algolagnism and a lot of the boys are just beaten at school.
  • 1908 E. Paul tr. I. Bloch ‘Sexional Life of Our Time’ xxi. 558 De Sade..collected almost all the facts..regarding algolagnistic phenomena in ethnology.
  • 1914 med.: med. Standard Aug. 10, 2014. Algolagnistic manifestation are frequently the result of a lack of familiarity with the facts of science, abnormal educational or religious influences .

How do rightly formed adjectives like odaxelagnic and -ic perform?

Even if “algolagnic” has no OED entry, there a number of hits for it on Google Books, some of which correspond to adjective uses. How should you use “odaxelagnic” as an adjective?

With the suffix “larnia”, there are some phrases that indicate that it is a Greek. Can you look up algolagnia now?

Algolagnia
n.
Sexual gratification derived from inflicting or experiencing pain.
Al′golag′nic adj., l.
Al′golag′nist n.
American Heritage Dictionary

n
(Psychiatry) a perversion in which sexual pleasure is gained from the experience or infliction of pain.
algolagnic adj
algolagnist n
Collins English Dictionary

n.
Sexual pleasure derived from enduring or inflicting pain, as in masochism or sadism.
Alga. > lag′nic, adj.
. algo•lag′nist, n.
Random House Kernerman Webster’s College Dictionary

Collins English Dictionary gives “algegiac” as noun.

algolagniac
n
another word for algolagnist
Collins English Dictionary

From Merriam-Webster we get the noun for the person “algotniac”

Algolagnia:
a perversion (such as sadism or masochism) characterized by pleasure and especially sexual gratification in inflicting or suffering pain.
Algolagnic adjective

And further down on the page we also get:

algolagnic adj

In Oxford Living Dictionaries we get: algolagnic adjective and noun

(strange)

If there are some people who practise algolagnia, and a sadomasochist, see

below

for -ic

endings being both adjective and noun : (tutarian noun A person who practises algolagnia, Is not, see below for -ic endings being both adjective and noun) and algolagniac (see example in above with an -ic noun);
Oxford Living Dictionaries

OK, now this gets very weird. Is there a word for someone who has one of these paraphilias that ends in -iac? If so, what exactly is it? (Applications and Comments may not be transcribed separately; these include terms “paraphilic” and “amnesic” both as nouns and both as adjectives and nouns.) Note that Merriam-Webster and Oxford Living Dictionaries lists “paraphilic” and “amnesic” as both adjective and nouns, and both “paraphiliac” and “amnesiac” as both both adjective and noun. How confusing it is for someone who can never figure this out? Has the -iac ending word been used to describe people with a condition in the past?

Nevertheless, a person with narcolepsy or schizophrenia is a “narcoleptic” or “schizophrenic” not “narcoleptiac” or “schizophrenic”. We can be sure that a person with a condition of mania, egomania, kleptomania, pyromania has a word ending in manic. Paranoiac describes itself as a noun and as an adjective, with Merriam-Webster also featuring “paranoic ” as an alternative to “paranoid.” How can you make heads/tails out of these 3 rules?

If the condition is odaxelagnia as the noun odaxelagniac as the noun for the person with the condition, for obvious reasons,
and amnesiac as the adjective odaxelagniac is usually the adjective
only. As for the person with the condition, I’m not completely sure.

All the dictionaries I’ve checked don’t list “algolagnistic”, so I’d be tempted to suggest what the dictionaries say, “odaxelagnist”? As an engineer with a private email, the word “algolagnistic” does come up in searches, and I feel that naturally one might be disposed to use this following the pattern of “masochist”/”masochistic” and all the other words ending in -ist. The addition of -ic to -ist to form suffix -istic is a very natural and intuitive use of a common English morpheme: a

fascist/fascistic
nationalist/nationalistic
misogynist/misogynistic
hedonist/hedonistic
pacifist/pacifistic

Where the word ending in -ist is a noun denoting a person and the -istic is the adjective/ adjective

If the suffix “ga” isn’t offered in the dictionary then maybe you can follow that. Some of the paraphilias don’t show up as specific words on search engines. Hence they

don’t appear in dictionary.
