So where does the -vish ending come from, anyway?

I suppose vicious would fit on this list if vitiate does, but I'll leave that up to you.
It's really difficult to come up with possibilities for this list--a good quality in a list, I always say.

Great adds, all. Thanks! And skipvia, vicious works for me. I was going to stick to -vish endings, but then thought of vitiate and couldn't resist. As so often happens on Wordie.
Odd how unusual the "vish" sound seems in English, and yet it appears in such a lovely variety of words...
