Оглавление
О любом человеке можно рассказать многое, и для этого есть много существительных. Во-первых, любому человеку можно “приписать” профессию или род занятий. Как правило, при этом мы отталкиваемся от глагола. Если человек выполняет какое-либо действие, то значит это и есть его род занятий или профессия. Человек живет в социуме, который имеет “слои общества”, есть дворянство, а значит и титулы, передаваемые по наследству, крестьянство, рабы. Это не профессия и не род занятий. Человек всегда имеет статус “родства”. Например, женщина может быть матерью, женой, сестрой, свекровью, дочерью, а человек мужского пола может быть мужем, зятем, сыном, отцом, холостяком и т.д.
Суффиксы “-HOOD”, “-SHIP” и “-DOM” образуют абстрактные существительные, которые могут указывать на статус человека в обществе, но не род занятий или профессию. Суффиксы “-HOOD”, “SHIP” и “DOM” во многом похожи по смыслу, но есть и различия, поэтому давайте рассмотрим их поочередно.
Суффикс “-HOOD” пришел в английский язык с немецкого языка и часто говорит о жизни человека, когда он проходит постепенно все фазы взросления от младенца до зрелого человека. Еще суффикс “-HOOD” может указывать на качества человека, которые не относятся к его роду деятельности.
Напишу несколько примеров существительных с суффиксом “-HOOD”.
BABY = ребенок, младенец + HOOD = BABYHOOD = младенчество;
BACHELOR (1) = холостяк + HOOD = BACHELORHOOD = холостяцкая жизнь;
BACHELOR (2) = бакалавр + HOOD = BACHELORHOOD = степень бакалавра;
BROTHER = брат, собрат, коллега, земляк + HOOD = BROTHERHOOD = братство, братские, дружеские отношения, люди одной профессии;
BOY = мальчик, школьник, парень, молодой человек, сын + HOOD = BOYHOOD = отрочество;
CHILD = ребенок, дитя, чадо, сын, дочь, отпрыск, потомок + HOOD = CHILDHOOD = детство;
FALSE = ложный, ошибочный, неправильный, фальшивый, вероломный, лживый, обманчивый + HOOD = FALSEHOOD = ложь, неправда, фальшь;
GENTLE = мягкий, добрый, тихий, спокойный, кроткий, родовитый, знатный + HOOD = GENTLEHOOD = знатность, благовоспитанность, любезность;
HARDY = смелый, отважный, дерзкий, закаленный, выносливый, стойкий + HOOD = HARDIHOOD = смелость, дерзость, наглость;

Суффикс “-SHIP” пришел в английский язык с немецкого языка и указывает на социальный статус, позицию, качество. Например, суффикс “-SHIP” образует существительные, которые указывают на “ДОЛЖНОСТИ”. Понятно, что должность не имеет ничего общего с профессией или ремеслом. Вот почему при слове “должность”, на ум сразу приходит образование, суд, административная работа.
