afflictiveadj.

Brit.

/əˈflɪktɪv/, U.S.

/əˈflɪktɪv/

Forms: 1500s–1600s afflictiue, 1600s– afflictive.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin afflictivus.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin afflictivus (13th cent.; from 14th cent. in British sources) < classical Latin afflīct- , past participial stem of afflīgere afflict v. + -īvus -ive suffix. Compare Middle French, French afflictif that causes pain or distress (1374 in an apparently isolated attestation), (specifically of a punishment) that directly afflicts a guilty person (15th cent. in an isolated attestation, subsequently from 1845), (of punishment) corporal (1611). Compare slightly earlier afflicting adj.

Characterized by affliction; tending to inflict continued pain or distress; distressing, painful; trying, troublesome (to someone).
