Secundative language

Etymology

Dubious. Etymologically, the first morpheme of the term may come from Ancient Greek δέχομαι (dékhomai, “to take, receive”); the second is obscure, but it is remotely possible it derives from Ancient Greek καίτοι (kaítoi, “further, indeed”). The term was first introduced by Dr. Edward L. Blansitt, Jr. A more current term with the same signification is secundative.
