Of or relating to gorillas; characteristic of or resembling a gorilla in behavior or appearance.
Derived from 'gorilla' with the Latin suffix -ine (from -inus), commonly used in scientific and anatomical terminology to mean 'of or relating to.' Similar to how 'feline' relates to 'cat.'
The -ine suffix is borrowed from Latin and gives words a more scientific or formal air—'gorilline' sounds like it belongs in a zoology textbook, even though 'gorilla-like' is more common in everyday speech.
