The suffix "-opter" is derived from the Greek word "opteron," meaning wing or feather. When added to the end of a word, it typically indicates an organism or device that has wings or is capable of flight. For example, the term "helicopter" combines "heli-" (meaning spiral) with "-opter," denoting a type of aircraft with rotating wings that enable it to fly.
