Morphology
dominatrix = dominate (semi-transparent) = domin + trix
The verb 'dominate' supplies the core meaning 'to control,' but the suffix '-trix' is a non-productive Latin feminine agentive in English and the specific BDSM sense is specialized.
Etymology
The word dominatrix comes from the Latin root domin- meaning 'master', the same root you see in dominate and dominion, plus the feminine ending -trix meaning 'a woman who does something'. So a dominatrix is literally a woman who takes the 'master' or 'dominant' role, which is why the word is used for a woman who leads in sexual role-play, often professionally.
