Relating to or intended for the killing of giants; destructive or deadly to giants.
Combines 'gigantic' with the suffix '-cidal' (relating to killing or destruction). This extremely rare term follows the pattern of '-cide' words like 'genocidal' or 'infanticidal,' though it's primarily literary or mythological.
The '-cide' suffix literally means 'killer' (from Latin 'caedere'), so giganticidal weapons exist mostly in fantasy literature—but the word brilliantly shows how productive suffixes let us invent specialized terms for specific scenarios!
