### Suffixe

-itis

* (Médecine) -ite ; suffixe qui indique une maladie inflammatoire.
* (Par extension) (Par plaisanterie) Désigne toute activité devenue irritante par répétition.
   * I’m suffering from vacationitis : « Je fais une vacancite »
* (Par extension) (Par plaisanterie) Désigne toute maladie associée à quelque activité ou événement.
   * It affects everyone in different ways but in my case vacationitis is brought on by my natural predilection towards being a stress bag every other day of the year. I thrive on stress, I eat it for breakfast. Stress is what keeps my body moving. So those rare times when I let my defenses down and actually stop and enjoy myself for a change every germ and ailment that was beaten back by my stress force field now has a way in. Stomach bug? Sure, c’mon in! Migraine? The more the merrier! Pinched nerve? The water’s fine! — (blogue Chicky Chicky Baby, août 2007)
