As you all know, the level 40 Taru weapons have a -suma suffix on their names and the level 80 have a -magna suffix, while level 10 are just the root words by themselves (wherever they come from).

Magna is the feminine form of magnus, meaning large, great, etc. Makes sense, until you look up summa, which is the feminine form of summus meaning highest. So logically, shouldn't -magna be the 40 suffix and -suma be the 80 suffix?
Sorry if this is old news.
