motorcade
A motorcade, or autocade, is a procession of vehicles. The term ''motorcade'' was coined by Lyle Abbot (in 1912 or 1913 when he was automobile editor of the ''Arizona Republican''), and is formed after ''cavalcade'' on the false notion that "-cade" was a suffix meaning "procession". In fact, there is no such suffix in either French or Latin, although ''-cade'' has now since become a productive suffix in English, leading to the alternative names ''carcade'', ''autocade'', and even ''Hoovercade'' (after J. Edgar Hoover). Eric Partridge called the name a "monstrosity", and Lancelot Hogben considered the word to be a "counterfeit coinage". The original suffix in ''cavalcade'' is actually "-ade".
