The derogatory suffix '''''-omja''''' is also generally used to refer to people, but it can include pets and other animals one might feel strongly about. This suffix can be added to adjectives only, and it is used to create derogatory terms highlighting the characteristic of the base word. It is a compound suffix, originating from the deadjectival stative verb suffix ''-umad'' (i.e. “to be [ADJECTIVE]”) and the general agent suffix ''-ja'' “-er”.
