Morphology
psoriatic = psoriasis (opaque) = psor + iatic
The suffix '-iatic' is not a standard English suffix, and the root 'psor' does not form a recognizable English word.
Etymology
Psoriatic comes from the Greek word psora, which means 'itch', and the ending -tic, which means 'relating to'. So psoriatic describes something affected by psoriasis, the itchy, scaly skin condition.
