• The narrow sense (“a suffix which follows an inflectional ending”) is traditionally used in Russian grammar classes and textbooks.
• The wide sense is often used in linguistics due to the narrow sense of су́ффикс (súffiks) (unlike suffix in English usage, су́ффикс (súffiks) in Russian excludes inflectional endings).
