Here’s a nifty page that lets you hide the suffixes or the definitions, kind of like online flashcards, for dozens of medical suffixes – http://www.studystack.com/studytable-6085
The suffix -ose is used in biochemistry to form the names of sugars. Numerous systems exist to name specific sugars more descriptively.
The only cye suffix I know of is one that means “great one” . It occurs in the language of the Mandolorians where were a people that lived only in the Star War’s movies lol
a suffix occurring in adjectives borrowed from Latin, meaning “full of,” “abounding in,” “given to,” “like”: frondose; globose; jocose; otiose;
-ase

Can’t find the third one. Cye does not look familiar as an ending

cyto- or cyt- pref. Cell: cytoplasm.
