Relating to or serving the purpose of eliminating; functioning to remove or exclude.
From eliminate + -ory (adjective suffix). Latin root with Romance-language adjectival formation.
'Eliminatory' sounds more formal than 'eliminative,' and that difference matters: eliminatory processes are typically systematic (like eliminatory diets), while eliminative just means 'causing elimination.'
