What does the suffix ury mean?

The suffix "-ury" is not a common English suffix. It's possible you're thinking of a different suffix, or the word you have in mind is misspelled.

Here are some suffixes that may be similar to what you're looking for:

* -ary: This suffix often indicates a place or thing associated with something. For example, "library" is a place for books, and "dictionary" is a book containing words.

* -ory: This suffix can also indicate a place or thing associated with something, but it's often used for a place where something is done. For example, "factory" is a place where things are made, and "laboratory" is a place for scientific experiments.

* -ery: This suffix often indicates a place or activity related to a particular trade or profession. For example, "bakery" is a place where bread is baked, and "fishery" is a place where fish are caught.

If you can provide the word you were thinking of, I can help you figure out what suffix it uses.
