Ator is not a word. It is also no more a part of the word dictator than "cta" is. A dictator is someone who dictates, who tells other people what to do. The word is made of the word "dictate" plus the suffix "-or" meaning someone who does it. In the same way, an actor is someone who acts (act+or), and a contractor is someone who contracts (contract+or).
