pedia
Encyclopedia's Greek ending
Pedia is a combining form meaning education or learning, from the Greek for child-rearing.
It appears in words like encyclopedia (general education) and orthopedia (correcting children's bodies).
In internet culture, -pedia has become a productive suffix for reference sites: Wikipedia, Investopedia, Wookieepedia.
The suffix now suggests any comprehensive, wiki-style knowledge base.
