Etymology: "Upgraders" is the plural of "upgrader," which is formed from "upgrade" plus the suffix "-er." "Upgrade" joins "up" and "grade," both English words. The suffix descends from a Proto-Germanic ending, "*-ārijaz," which became Old English "-ere" and then Middle English "-er," the form it keeps today.
